Description Gaetan Cambier 2009-11-24 14:12:21 UTC
Résumé:

SELinux is preventing hwclock (hwclock_t) "ioctl" var_t.

Description détaillée:

[SELinux est en mode permissif. Cet accès n'a pas été refusé.]

SELinux denied access requested by hwclock. It is not expected that this access
is required by hwclock 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.

Autoriser l'accès:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
