If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point.

This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was first requested. As a result we are closing it. If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora version please feel free to reopen it against that version.

Description of problem: using Fedora 7 Test 4. I am using OpenVPN and my client.conf script has the following command in it: up /etc/openvpn/clientup.sh SELinux disallows running the script, generating the info atteched below. Should this be allowed through a boolean in the SELinux management tool? --------- Summary SELinux is preventing sh (openvpn_t) "execute" to clientup.sh (openvpn_etc_t). Detailed Description SELinux denied access requested by sh. It is not expected that this access is required by sh and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access. Allowing Access Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore the default system file context for clientup.sh, restorecon -v clientup.sh If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this package.
