I am (SELinux newbie) working on a project which
will require me to add new object classes to my policy. After doing
much reading, I find that in order to add object classes I must modify
and build the base policy (??). My approach is to download the source
for the policy, modify it with the new object classes and TE rules, and
build it. My first step is to try and simply build the strict (or any)
policy from the sources. I get a syntax error when trying to build the
policy. My steps are: rpm -i selinux-policy-2.4.6-137.1.el5.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS rpmbuild -bp selinux-policy.spec cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/serefpolicy-2.4.6 make conf make which results in the following failure: /usr/bin/checkpolicy policy.conf -o policy.21 /usr/bin/checkpolicy: loading policy configuration from policy.conf policy/modules/services/fail2ban.te:59:ERROR 'syntax error' at token 'corenet_tcp_connect_whois_port' on line 439903: corenet_tcp_connect_whois_port(fail2ban_t) checkpolicy: error(s) encountered while parsing configuration make: *** [policy.21] Error 1 some possibly relevant packages are: checkpolicy.i386 1.33.1-4.el5 installed policycoreutils.i386 1.33.12-14.el5 installed policycoreutils-gui.i386 1.33.12-14.el5 installed policycoreutils-newrole.i386 1.33.12-14.el5 installed selinux-policy.noarch 2.4.6-137.1.el5 installed selinux-policy-devel.noarch 2.4.6-137.1.el5 installed selinux-policy-mls.noarch 2.4.6-137.1.el5 installed selinux-policy-strict.noarch 2.4.6-137.1.el5 installed selinux-policy-targeted.noarch 2.4.6-137.1.el5 installed libselinux.i386 1.33.4-5.el5 installed libselinux-devel.i386 1.33.4-5.el5 installed libselinux-python.i386 1.33.4-5.el5 installed libsemanage.i386 1.9.1-3.el5 installed libsepol.i386 1.15.2-1.el5 installed libsepol-devel.i386 1.15.2-1.el5 installed setools.i386 3.0-3.el5 installed setools-devel.i386 3.0-3.el5 installed setools-gui.i386 3.0-3.el5 installed setroubleshoot.noarch 2.0.5-3.el5 installed setroubleshoot-plugins.noarch 2.0.4-2.el5 installed setroubleshoot-server.noarch 2.0.5-3.el5 installed Any help would be greatly appreciated, Andy |
