similar to: SELinux in %post

Tried just the selinux list yesterday, no answers, so I'm trying again. I partitioned GPT, and formatted, as xfs, a large (3TB) drive on a CentOS 6 system, which has selinux in permissive mode. I then moved the drive to a CentOS 5 system. When we run a copy (it mirror-copies from another system), we get a ton of errors. I discovered that the CentOS 5 system was enforcing. I changed it to

I'm seeing this every hour when the hourly cron job runs NULL security context for user, but SELinux in permissive mode, continuing () I've tried fixfiles but obviously I'm missing something.... Any SELinux gurus that can point me in the right direction? Thanks Rob -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name: rkampen.vcf Type: text/x-vcard

I've got a CentOS 6 machine that's slated to go into production providing some web and development-repository services. Part of the environment is gitweb, which works as expected with one glitch: SELinux doesn't allow gitweb.cgi to query sssd to display who owns the repositories. The audit log entries are pretty straightforward, e.g., type=AVC msg=audit(XXXXXXXXXXXX): avc:

Hi there, As you know, $HOME is generally located at "/home/$username" by default. I would like to re-locate all users' $HOME directories to something like "/export/home/$username" without having a hassle/trouble. Initially, I've thought of just copying them to the new directory (under /export/home/xxx), but guessed it might trouble for the normal use (I'm pretty

I've got a Mailman installation running on CentOS 4 that I'd like to migrate to a CentOS 6 box. My big obstacle at present is getting Mailman's mm-handler Perl script to run as a Sendmail local mailer with SELinux enabled. I've tried changing mm-handler's selinux context type a few times, but nothing has resulted in success: context result

Thanks for the breakdown Paul - I've had to learn all my sysadmin stuff through organic interactions like this. Still though - someone manages the default repositories - so my question is, who decides when a package gets an update from whatever CentOS ships with default to a newer version? How does that process take place, and, can I affect it by adding microcode_ctl-2.1-18 ? On Wed, Jan 4,

What is the equivelent "selinux-policy-targeted-sources" package in CentOS 5? It was available in 4.4. Thanks for any help. -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

There is a slight performance related reason for exporting disk partitions individually, the performance boost is server-side as Paul says. The advantage is that the no_subtree_check can be used without any additional security risk. It is probably the case that the /export/base/a is a partition, is exported with no_subtree_check, and therefore there is a small performance boost. Preventing

I updated my backup server to CentOS 6.6 this morning. As usual, I unmounted the current (nightly) tape from the changer before the reboot. Now Bacula complains it cannot access the changer: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command. 3991 Bad autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command: ERR=Child exited with code 1. Results=cannot open SCSI device '/dev/changer' -
