Description of problem: Apparently, cyrus-imapd "imapd" processes can't access the saslauthd socket in /var/run/saslauthd; sealert gives this: --- 8< --- Summary SELinux is preventing imapd (cyrus_t) "search" to <Unknown> (saslauthd_var_run_t). Detailed Description SELinux denied access requested by imapd. It is not expected that this access is required by imapd 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 <Unknown>, restorecon -v <Unknown> 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.
