selinux is denying an action that seems to be allowed in the policy. Any ideas on why this would be? I want to fix this with a local policy, but audit2allow just tells me to add the same allow rule that is already present according to sesearch. Here are the audit messages: host=eng-vocngcn03.eng.gci type=AVC msg=audit(1299790809.242:685639): avc: denied { rename } for pid=21701 comm="vsftpd" name=".local-110585184.jpg.3836" dev=dm-22 ino=13467775 scontext=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:samba_share_t:s0 tclass=file host=eng-vocngcn03.eng.gci type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1299790809.242:685639): arch=c000003e syscall=82 success=no exit=-13 a0=2aca78d2c2a0 a1=2aca78d2c300 a2=1 a3=312d6c61636f6c2f items=0 ppid=21697 pid=21701 auid=4294967295 uid=14 gid=100 euid=14 suid=14 fsuid=14 egid=100 sgid=100 fsgid=100 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="vsftpd" exe="/usr/sbin/vsftpd" subj=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 key=(null) Based on the AVC message I put together and sesearch command below, and it shows that there is an allow rule: #sesearch -a -t samba_share_t -s ftpd_t -c file -p rename Found 1 av rules: allow ftpd_t samba_share_t : file { ioctl read write create getattr setattr lock append unlink link rename }; Thanks, Maria -- selinux mailing list selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/selinux
