I did a reload today at 08:36:00 a.m. (semodule -R). Round about two and half hours later I checked the auditlog:

ausearch -m AVC --start 25.06.2010 08:36:00 --end 25.06.2010 11:00:00

Only messages from ssh_t (success=yes). Fine. But "audit2allow -a -l" still throws error messages:

...
libsepol.context_from_record: type antivirus_t is not defined
libsepol.context_from_record: could not create context structure
libsepol.context_from_string: could not create context structure
libsepol.sepol_context_to_sid: could not convert unconfined_u:unconfined_r:antivirus_t:s0 to sid
...

I will wait for Dan's answer :-).

Problem solved. @All: Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Alice

p.s.:
I still don't know how to debug sepol-messages. Can you give me a hint?
