Thanks Murray... It looks to me like Centos 5.2 and/or the 5.3 preview
policy release doesn;'t have that rule:
--------
[root@C5 ~]# sesearch --allow -s procmail_t -t spamc_exec_t
[root@C5 ~]#
--------
Can you advise me the easiest and/or best way to add this rule to to my
system?

After some trouble getting the file-system relabelled - which was

intractable denials.
One seems to be related to procmail running spamc. The other seems to
be webalizer being denied access to squid logs. Here is some
representative troubledhooter output:
Summary
SELinux is preventing spamc (procmail_t) "execute" to ./spamc
(spamc_exec_t).
Detailed Description
[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied
but was permitted due to permissive mode.]
SELinux denied access requested by spamc. It is not expected that
this access is required by spamc and this access may signal an
intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or
configuration of the application is causing it to require additional
access.
Allowing Access
Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try
to restore the default system file context for ./spamc,
restorecon -v './spamc'
If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow
this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow
this access - see FAQ
<http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385> Or you can
disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection
is not recommended. Please file a bug report
<http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi> against this
package.

Fedora 10 has a rule that looks like it would resolve this issue:
$ sesearch --allow -s procmail_t -t spamc_exec_t
WARNING: This policy contained disabled aliases; they have been removed.

Do you have this rule when running the 5.3 preview packages? I am not
sure about your webalizer issue...

I didn't think I was doing anything unusual here - so I am surprised
these aren't covered by standard policy. Am I don't something strange
- and if so - do I need to write my own local policy. Is there a more
standard way to run spamc and/.or webalizer which will prevent these
denials?
Thanks
Richard.
