Bug 617579

Happens when doing "cobbler check", I think it is trying to determine if cobblerd is running.


Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python "getattr" access on
/etc/rc.d/init.d/cobblerd.

Detailed Description:

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

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.
