I'm planning change the default value of httpd_graceful_shutdown boolean in Fedora Rawhide because of improving SELinux configuration. Rawhide builds with this change will be available in ~5 days.

Together with Dan Walsh, we agreed on that httpd_graceful_shutdown boolean should be by default turned off. This boolean allows HTTPD to connect to port 80 for graceful shutdown, but it's breaking the functionality of another boolean called: httpd_can_network_connect. This boolean allows HTTPD scripts and modules to connect to the network using TCP and it's turned off by default.

Turning this boolean off can cause some troubles, on web-servers where processes with httpd_t SELinux domain connecting to tcp ports: 80, 81, 443, 488, 8008, 8009, 8443, 9000

If you would like to turn in on again, use semanage command:
# semanage boolean -m --on httpd_graceful_shutdown
In FreeIPA we have httpd_can_network_connect enabled. I just checked a F26
system and I have both booleans enabled.

# getsebool -a|egrep 'httpd_graceful_shutdown|httpd_can_network_connect '
httpd_can_network_connect --> on
httpd_graceful_shutdown --> on

So I'm a bit confused: disabling httpd_graceful_shutdown will have or
wouldn't have an effect on httpd_can_network_connect being enabled?

Do I need to do anything in FreeIPA setup?
