Yay ! Done that.

That's right, it only needs read access. I've added:
init_read_utmp(ftpd_t)
init_dontaudit_write_utmp(ftpd_t)
to the module (picked from the policy sources)

OK. I'll use sysnet_use_ldap to allow LDAP access then.

Looks good to me, except I've placed it
in /usr/share/selinux/packages/<packagename> to avoid the base and targeted
dirs being buried under a ton of packages dirs in the future.

It's taking shape, but I have another problem. I run
  semodule -i %{_datadir}/selinux/packages/%{name}/pureftpd.pp
in the %post scriptlet to load the module, and I get this error:

libsemanage.semanage_commit_sandbox: Could not remove previous
backup /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/previous.
semodule:  Failed!

With this AVC in audit.log :

type=AVC msg=audit(1145025496.481:18267): avc:  denied  { rmdir } for 
pid=28069 comm="semodule" name="modules" dev=sda2 ino=1249868
scontext=user_u:system_r:semanage_t:s0
tcontext=user_u:object_r:selinux_config_t:s0 tclass=dir

And the module is not loaded.
Calling semodule outside the RPM scriptlet works fine.

Any idea ? Should I use another command ?


Thanks,

Aurélien
