A sendmail problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The last few days - I think there was a policy update to FC13 - I started
seeing
/etc/cron.daily/0logwatch:
>
> Can't exec "sendmail": Permission denied at /usr/sbin/logwatch line
> 1032, <TESTFILE> line 2.
> Can't execute sendmail -t: Permission denied

Mentioned this to my manager, and he didn't see anything in messages, but
saw this audit message:

type=SELINUX_ERR msg=audit(1281423963.394:71003):
security_compute_sid:  invalid context
system_u:system_r:logwatch_mail_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 for
scontext=system_u:system_r:logwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
tcontext=system_u:object_r:sendmail_exec_t:s0 tclass=process

Why would a policy prevent logwatch from using sendmail to forward a log?
