Description Alice K 2011-05-31 04:31:49 UTC
SELinux is preventing /bin/bash from 'read' accesses on the lnk_file /var/lock.

*****  Plugin restorecon (94.8 confidence) suggests  *************************

If you want to fix the label. 
/var/lock default label should be var_lock_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/lock

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (5.21 confidence) suggests  ********************

If you want to allow bash to have read access on the lock lnk_file
Then you need to change the label on /var/lock
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/var/lock'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: etc_runtime_t, var_run_t, home_root_t, udev_var_run_t, var_lock_t, bin_t, cert_t, usr_t, device_t, devlog_t, locale_t, dhcpc_t, etc_t, proc_t, sysfs_t, dhcp_etc_t, abrt_t, lib_t, root_t, device_t, var_run_t, ld_so_t, proc_t, textrel_shlib_t, proc_net_t, proc_xen_t, rpm_script_tmp_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v '/var/lock'


*****  Plugin catchall (1.44 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that bash should be allowed read access on the lock lnk_file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep dhclient-script /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Please, execute

# restorecon -R -v /var

will fix.
