Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep fail2ban-client /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:fail2ban_client_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:fail2ban_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects fail2ban [ dir ] Source fail2ban-client Source Path /usr/bin/python2.7 Port <Unknown> Host s198.xx.yy.ro Source RPM Packages python-2.7.5-1.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-52.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name s198.xx.yy.ro Platform Linux s198.xx.yy.ro 3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 11 19:39:38 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 35 First Seen 2013-06-17 14:04:13 EEST Last Seen 2013-06-19 08:28:22 EEST Local ID 9d6fd1b8-250e-4425-b3e3-7590dc3bc1f1 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1371619702.236:67): avc: denied { write } for pid=871 comm="fail2ban-client" name="fail2ban" dev="tmpfs" ino=11022 scontext=system_u:system_r:fail2ban_client_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:fail2ban_var_run_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1371619702.236:67): arch=x86_64 syscall=access success=no exit=EACCES a0=1ab48c0 a1=3 a2=32adbbbf88 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=871 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=fail2ban-client exe=/usr/bin/python2.7 subj=system_u:system_r:fail2ban_client_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: fail2ban-client,fail2ban_client_t,fail2ban_var_run_t,dir,write ****** Fixing .... ****** [cristi@s198 ~]$ systemctl status fail2ban.service fail2ban.service - Fail2ban Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/fail2ban.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since Wed 2013-06-19 08:28:22 EEST; 1min 45s ago Process: 871 ExecStart=/usr/bin/fail2ban-client -x start (code=exited, status=255) Jun 19 08:28:21 s198.xx.yy.ro systemd[1]: fail2ban.service holdoff tim....
