>Summary:
>
>SELinux is preventing sendmail (system_mail_t) "append" to
>/var/rkhunter/tmp/rkhcronlog.RXgpCp6273 (var_t).
>
>Detailed Description:
>
>SELinux denied access requested by sendmail. It is not expected that this access
>is required by sendmail and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is
>also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is
>causing it to require additional access.
>
>Allowing Access:
>
>Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore
>the default system file context for /var/rkhunter/tmp/rkhcronlog.RXgpCp6273,
>
>restorecon -v '/var/rkhunter/tmp/rkhcronlog.RXgpCp6273'
>
>If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access.
>Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
>(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can disable
>SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended.
>Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
>against this package.
