Might help if you attached the file you promised to :)

Please show the contents of /var/log/audit/audit.log after selinux prevents ybin
from working.

Comment 2 Josef Kubin 2008-05-05 19:17:45 UTC

# setenforce 1; setenforce 0
# > /var/log/audit/audit.log
... and try to reproduce ...

Comment 4 Andreas Loening 2008-06-02 19:35:47 UTC

The error I got was:

/sbin/ybin: line 818: /bin/mount: Permission denied


The generated lines in audit.log:

type=SELINUX_ERR msg=audit(1212433789.890:30): security_compute_sid:  invalid

The work around:

#setenforce 1
