Beginner question deciphering SELinux logs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm very excited to learn more about SELinux as I jump in configuring this amazing tool. So I hope you folks don't mind a beginner question or two. Right now I'm attempting to better understand AVC logs. I've got SAMBA setup to do standard file sharing on CentOS 5.1. Default targeted policy is set in enforcing mode. When set to permissive, no problem. However, enforcing is giving me the following error below. I've already set the following booleans to 1, which has not helped.

samba_enable_home_dirs                 on
use_samba_home_dirs                    on

Could a kind soul share with me what the log below is telling me?

Thanks!

PS: Is there anyway to configure SELinux/auditd to use regular dates, as sylogd does?
