Hi Dominick.
1. We do not have the seinfo utility available in our box so could not run
it
2. The AVC denial is
type=AVC msg=audit(1369081665.408:8113): avc: denied { create } for
pid=18379 comm="usermod" name="passwd+"
scontext=specialuser_u:system_r:pwrecoveryd_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0 tclass=file
3. audit2why shows this
type=AVC msg=audit(1369081665.408:8113): avc: denied { create } for
pid=18379 comm="usermod" name="passwd+"
scontext=specialuser_u:system_r:pwrecoveryd_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0 tclass=file
Was caused by:
Constraint violation.
Check policy/constraints.
Typically, you just need to add a type attribute to the
domain to satisfy the constraint.
Thanks,
Anamitra
