Comment 2 Vojtech Polasek 2022-02-21 10:06:07 UTC
Hello,
thank you for the BZ. The rule OVAL check has two parts which are connected with conjunction:
1. It checks for the correct snippet in either /etc/bashrc or /etc/profile.d/*. I guess this part passes after remediation.
2. It checks if a tmux process is running. I guess this part fails. This will be probably always reported as "error" because the Tmux process will just not get started. Someone has to log in so that their shell sources the particular snippet and starts tmux.
Two questions:
1. do you have tmux package installed?
2. Does the rule pass if you reboot and perform the scan again?
I am not sure if this has any simple fix because of the nature of checks.

Comment 3 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2022-02-21 10:48:54 UTC
1. No, tmux is not installed.
2. No, it does not pass after reboot either.

I must ask: why should tmux be running? It gets started when a user logs in ... why does compliance check (which might be run from a cron job for all we know) care if there is a user logged in or not?
