Hey,
I'm working on getting a new Fedora-10 server up and running. I've
set up mailman and have lists configured. Mail even seems to be
flowing, but for some reason I'm getting a strange audit message on
each incoming message. I find it interesting that there are three
unix_socket AVCs and I have three milters connected to sendmail.
The settroubleshoot viewer gives me the following information.
I'm hoping someone could help me understand these log messages,
and maybe help me make them go away?
Thanks,
-derek
Summary
SELinux is preventing mailman (mailman_mail_t) "read write" sendmail_t.
Detailed Description
SELinux denied access requested by mailman. It is not expected that this access is required by mailman 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
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux
protection is not recommended. Please file a bug report against this
package.
