SELinux is not allowing me to set the needed context on a FIFO that will be written by a nut_upsmon_t process. Runnin sesearch to find suitable types yields:
allow nut_upsmon_t nut_upsmon_t:fifo_file { append getattr ioctl lock open read write };
But, when I try to run "chcon -t nut_upsmon_t /path/to/fifo" I get "permission denied" and an SELinux alert than complains
If you want to change the label of .alertFIFO2 to nut_upsmon_t, you are not allowed to since it is not a valid file type.
Then you must pick a valid file label.
Do
select a valid file type. List valid file labels by executing:
# seinfo -afile_type -x
That returns info for files, not FIFOs.
Once again, SELinux is causing me more problems than any virus would.
