Hi,

My test system runs FC4 updated to the latest rpm's as of today. I'm trying to get SELinux working and am having a slight problem

I've gotten nfs, samba and ntpd working OK, but I have a problem with NIS running yppasswd to set passwords.

With SELinux disabled it work's, with SELinux enabled, in enforcing mode and targetted policy it doesn't.

The errors I get are as follows:

/var/log/messages ( edited )

beta rpc.yppasswdd[1778]: update testacc1 (uid=9001) from host 10.220.1.151 failed

                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So it seems that SELinux is denying rpc.yppasswdd writing to /etc/.pwd.lock

How do I allow it to write to that file.

Thank's in advance

Tony

Please submit a bugzilla.  Looks like we need policy for yppasswdd.
