 I think those errors are because selinux is off.


Hmm, I don't ever really turn selinux off, but I had always thought
aide treated it as optional.

Could test by setting it to permissive and trying again. This would be
interesting to test.



I'm not sure if a reboot is required or not. I set permissive in the config
file and echoed 1 into /selinux/enforce and then tried firstly the --check,
and then an --init. Both still show the faulty lines.

I will set it up properly and do a reboot tomorrow to see if it changes
things, but for now, it doesn't.

Hi there

It is probably worth doing "touch /.autorelabel" before the reboot as
nothing will have really changed with the above actions

this will force relabelling of your fs after the reboot and may give
you the context info that you require

Thanks Mike,

I'm not sure I can do the reboot today as I have had to put the server into a temporary production status.

The thing that is sort of bothering me, though, is that so much trouble occurs because of selinux when trying to use aide RPMs. Might I not try and generate my own rpms without selinux support or just compile from source? Is there a way I can disable the selinux stuff when using the Centos rpms? I'm still not hearing a definitive answer that selinux is the culprit here and modifying filesystems for a test is a little extreme.

I appreciate the help so far, though, and don't mean to sound ungrateful.

steve
