Dear selinux experts, I am running rawhide and I have encountered the following denied avc's. Thank you all for your help in anticipation :). Summary: SELinux is preventing kerneloops (kerneloops_t) "read" inotifyfs_t. Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by kerneloops. It is not expected that this access is required by kerneloops 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 (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.

I did not get a working internet connection, so I then went to call dhclient, the command worked, but selinux kicked in. Thank you for your help. Will get back to work on Monday :) Regards, Antonio -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
