Two questions 1. Does this happen all the time? 2. Does invoking vpnc from a shell work OK? Btw, can you attach the bits of /var/log/messages that is printed during the connection attempt? Thanks 1. Yes. 2. Yes, as root. As user, I get "/usr/sbin/vpnc: binding to port 500: Permission denied". When I attempt to use NM-vpnc, the only message in /var/log/messages is: Aug 1 11:52:05 vincent52 NetworkManager: <WARNING> (): VPN failed for service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc', signal 'ConnectFailed', with message 'The VPN login failed because the VPN program could not connect to the VPN server.'. *** Bug 163405 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Changing version to devel since this is only available in Rawhide / Rawhide Extras. So, further debugging shows that selinux is the culprit here. This is the message thrown to /var/log/messages. Aug 2 10:48:25 dhcp83-16 dbus: avc: denied { send_msg } for msgtype=method_call interface=com.redhat.dhcp member=set dest=com.redhat.dhcp spid=3511 tpid=3445 scontext=root:system_r:dhcpc_t tcontext=root:system_r:unconfined_t tclass=dbus Workaround for this bug is to disable selinux. Fixed in selinux-policy-targeted-1.25.3-11 Matthew Saltzman, does disabling selinux or updating to selinux-policy-targeted-1.25.3-11 make this work for you? It is available on ftp://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/Fedora and will be available via rawhide tomorrow. Yes, "setenforce 0" works around the problem. Updating to selinux-policy-targeted-1.25.3-11 also solves the problem. Thanks! Thanks to everyone involved. Closing this bug. |
