In which case semanage and the kernel are working correctly. I doubt he wants to map that to mysqld_port_t though - since it comes from the local port range. So there's a question - should we be mapping everything in the local port range to a single type for name_connect checking? name_bind doesn't get checked against that range at all since the kernel internally allocates from it. Sounds like a job for secmark to control, but not sure how the port is originally conveyed to mysqld for use. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
