It was starting a service in init.d that changed userid's via 'su'. Since it was a headless application (i.e. daemon) I chose to ignore the errors as follows: gen_require(` type initrc_su_t; type sshd_t; type xauth_exec_t; ') dontaudit initrc_su_t sshd_t:key { search }; dontaudit initrc_su_t xauth_exec_t:file { execute }; As you can see, the 'su' session also tried to grovel around for SSH keys.
