SELinux revisited

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings;

Running 2.6.23 here, on a AMD XP-2800, gig of ram, lots of drive.

I thought maybe I should give selinux another chance here.  So I removed the 
selinux=0 in my grub.conf, and edited its .conf file in /etc/sysconfig to set 
it for permissive.

On the reboot, the relabel wasn't done, so I looked around and reset a 
fresh /.autorelabel file and rebooted again.  It was already present however.

This time it did a very short autorelabel, maybe 2 screens full and was done 
in just a couple of seconds, at which point it went into yet another reboot 
cycle making me think it was stuck in a loop or something.

But the next reboot then had auditd advise me there was an error in line 16 
of /etc/audit/auditd.rules.
------------
# This file contains the auditctl rules that are loaded
# whenever the audit daemon is started via the initscripts.
# The rules are simply the parameters that would be passed
# to auditctl.

# First rule - delete all
-D

# Increase the buffers to survive stress events.
# Make this bigger for busy systems
-b 320

# Feel free to add below this line. See auditctl man page

Not having any idea if it counts lines by lf's, or if it ignores commented 
lines in its line count, so I have NDI what its fussing about.  FWIW, I am 
not running a dhcp network, just a server so my lappy can log in.  Everything 
else is in my /etc/hosts file.

Watching the audit.log with a tail, res=success seems to be a 100% answer so 
far.

1. The last time I watched an autorelabel, it took about 10 minutes, why was 
it done this time in <2 secs?

2. What can I do about the rules error?
