RHEL 6 will include a kernel later than 2.6.24, this should not be an issue. The feature requested has already been accepted into the upstream code base planned for the next major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. When the next milestone release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is available, please verify that the feature requested is present and functioning as desired. File capabilities are upstream since long before 2.6.29. They are enabled in all recent fedoras. They do require CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y Closing - included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. ------- Comment From sergeh.com 2010-05-20 09:10 EDT------- FWIW, both manual tests and the ltp filecaps testcase pass on RHEL6 on ppc64. Use of cap_sys_admin+ie (for user with inheritable capabilties, cap_sys_admin+pe, and file capabilities plus setuid-root were hand-tested. All appears correct. |
