Thanks Stephen, this makes sense to me, but I can't get that statement to compile in my policy module: Compiling targeted puppet module /usr/bin/checkmodule: loading policy configuration from tmp/puppet.tmp puppet.te":14:ERROR 'unknown level s0-s0 used in range_transition definition' at token ';' on line 1041: range_transition initrc_t puppet_exec_t:process s0-s0:c0.c1023; #init_ranged_daemon_domain(puppet_t,puppet_exec_t,s0-s0:c0.c1023); /usr/bin/checkmodule: error(s) encountered while parsing configuration make: *** [tmp/puppet.mod] Error 1 I did try checkmodule as well, and I tried using the init_ranged_daemon_domain macro. Here is the policy module that I am trying to compile: module puppet 1.2; require { type puppet_t; type puppet_exec_t; type initrc_t; attribute can_change_object_identity; class process { transition }; } typeattribute puppet_t can_change_object_identity; #init_ranged_daemon_domain(puppet_t,puppet_exec_t,s0-s0:c0.c1023); range_transition initrc_t puppet_exec_t:process s0-s0:c0.c1023; I feel like I'm close, but perhaps I'm missing how to import the level definitions? _______________________________________________ Selinux mailing list Selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe, send email to Selinux-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
