I believe this bug is a duplicate of BZ#1337041. (In reply to Milos Malik from comment #2) > I believe this bug is a duplicate of BZ#1337041. Yep. Same problem which is why I listed it as related. It's affecting 7.3 and that bug doesn't list 7.3. If there's anything I can provide from logs, etc... to help, let me know... Best Regards, Akmal Avloni *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1337041 *** |
Created attachment 1265333 [details] screenshot Description of problem: selinux is preventing masking of iptables. It's useful to mask iptables. Issues arise from starting iptables when firewalld is active. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.3.1611 How reproducible: All instances I tried reproduced it. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update CentOS to latest (7.3.1611) 2. run systemctl mask iptables 3. Actual results: Iptables service is not masked, you get "Failed to execute operation: Access denied" Expected results: Iptables service should be masked, you should get "Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/iptables.service to /dev/null" Additional info: Other services could be masked without issues(example network.service, postfix.service, rhnsd.service). Putting SELINUX in permissive mode allows masking of iptables.
