This needs a fix in the SElinux policy - Miroslav/Dan, can you take a look?

Thanks.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2011-03-31 13:48:06 UTC
ZiN you are attempting to put a Process label on a file, that is why it is failing.  The alert told you which types could be assigned to the file to make it work?

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2011-03-31 13:49:24 UTC
Does shorewall need to be able to edit any file in 

/etc/iproute2/
