Description Robin Powell 2011-08-13 19:26:34 UTC
Note that I've seen no actual *problem* here, but with exim running I'm getting:

type=AVC msg=audit(1313231101.900:312918): avc:  denied  { write } for  pid=4641 comm="exim_tidydb" name="wait-remote_smtp.lockfile" dev=vda2 ino=6313 scontext=system_u:system_r:system_cronjob_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:exim_spool_t:s0 tclass=file

Which appears to be caused by /etc/cron.daily/exim-tidydb

audit2allow says:

allow system_cronjob_t exim_spool_t:file write;

I imagine there's something in the cron or exim interfaces that would be better, but I also imagine y'all can find it faster than I can.  :)

If you chcon -t exim_exec_t exim_tidydb

Does it solve the problem?

Comment 2 Robin Powell 2011-08-21 02:54:39 UTC
I'll see for sure tonight, but my manual test run indicates that it does fix it, yes.
