Did you create a file in /tmp named group and then move it somewhere. tmp_t is the default context for files in /tmp if you use the mv command it will retain the context. So say you created an /etc/group file in /tmp and then moved it to /etc mv /tmp/group /etc/group You would have the wrong context on the file. You can fix the context using restorecon /etc/group If you want to look at the context of a file you can use ls ls -Z /etc/group Dan Hi Dan Yes, this was done by our site configuration script. I restored /etc/group context using restorecon as you suggested, and now ntpd runs. Thanks very much for the help. selinux is going to take a while to learn. Gordon |
