I recently installed fail2ban on my F8 box. I don't allow remote access to my box but it had been mentioned recently so I decided to test it out. I installed it a few days ago but didn't do anything with it till last night. I had forgotten about it but I was perusing log files and saw 21 AVC's related it to it. I pulled up my services gui and sure enough it wasn't running. I tried to start it and got denied(it wouldn't start from a terminal at all, complaining that the service is unrecognized). No problem , i expected as much when I saw the AVC's in my log files but I always try things more than once so I tried to start it a second time and this time and every time after it started without generating a denial. Is this because I manually started the service? That doesn't make sense because then it would have worked the first time as well but it didn't. I see that there is a policy module for fail2ban but if the module is in place then shouldn't it have run without issues? Why 21 AVC's and then its working? I am learning my way around SELinux but I don't feel comfortable enough to troubleshoot this problem correctly, so where do I start?
