It would be nice if the interface would be smart enough and allow output from the cron job to be sent, but no one is perfect :)

That would be unfortunate. Mine approach is not

technique in wast scripts. spamassassin restarts

it updates anti-spam rules, clamav does that
(antivirus) and
on and on. I use Fedora 11, by the way.
For now, instead of creating a new policy I just
added
'runcon -t unconfind_t ' in the cron, and it seemed to

the trick.

Looking here:
http://oss.tresys.com/projects/refpolicy/browser/trunk/policy/modules/services/cron.if
line 235 to line 269.

That seems like a interface one might use in your
situation:

cron_system_entry(winbind_t, winbind_exec_t)

I admit that using cron with SELinux is not very easy
currently

Sincerely yours,

if you want the system to run jobs you will
need
to write
some policy or
extend the system_cronjob_t domain i think


Were those the only avc denial you got? I
would
expect more
denials.

Hi,

Last night I got a
nasty
surprise from
selinux. I
am using winbind for external
authentication and
since it
has history of failures I have a
simple
watchdog
implemented
to check the status and restart it
if
necessary.
That
is  what happened last night and
as a law
abiding
selinux citizen I used 'service
winbind
restart',
but it
seems the proper domain
transitions is
missing
and winbind
was started in system_cronjob_t
domain
instead of
winbind_t
and none of other domains could
connect
to it.
I think jobs running
from
cron should
be granted
the same transition rules as
from
unconfined_t.
I will file bugzilla
report
about it,
but could
somebody help me with modifying
my
local policy
until/if it
gets implemented, please? Thank
you.
Sincerely yours,
    Vadym
Chepkov
A domain transition would
be:
policy_module(mywinbind,
0.0.1)
require { type
system_cronjob_t,
winbind_exec_t,
winbind_t; }
domain_auto_trans(system_cronjob_t,
winbind_exec_t,
winbind_t)
Can you show us the full raw
avc
denial?

But personally would deal with
this in
a
different way. I
would write
policy for the script that
restarts
winbind and
then i
would create a
domain transition for the domain
in
which the
script runs
to winbind_t.

Mainly because i wouldnt want to
extend/modify
system_cronjob_t

So: system_cronjob_t ->
myscript_exec_t ->
myscript_t
->  winbind_exec_t
->  winbind_t

Miroslav,

I think you should add

dontaudit $1 crond_t:fifo_file rw_fifo_file_perms;

To cron_system_entry to eliminate this leaked file descriptor problem.
