This problem may or may not be due to SELinux (e.g. SELinux might be denying permission to send the audit message to the audit system, or there may be some other error, e.g. since dbusd doesn't run as root, it might not be allowed to use the audit system anyway). -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
