Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
 * conmand uses too powerful SELinux domain

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
conman-0.2.7-2.el6.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-doc-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch

selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# service conman status
conmand is stopped
# service conman start
Starting ConMan:                                           [  OK  ]
# service conman status
conmand (pid 14315) is running...
# ps -efZ | grep conman
unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 root   14315     1  0 14:29 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/conmand -c /etc/conman.conf
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 14329 3863  0 14:29 pts/0 00:00:00 grep conman
#

Actual results:
 * conmand runs as initrc_t

Expected results:
 * conmand runs in its own SELinux domain

Hi Milos, 

Could you attach here or send me conman config file? (/etc/conman.conf)

I need re-test this service. 

Thank you!

I use the default configuration file, but following command needs to be executed before starting the service:

# echo 'CONSOLE name="pokus" dev="/usr/share/conman/exec/ipmitool.exp 127.0.0.1 admin"' >> /etc/conman.conf

It's working now, thank you!
