cat /usr/include/linux/capability.h ... /* Allow raising priority and setting priority on other (different UID) processes */ /* Allow use of FIFO and round-robin (realtime) scheduling on own processes and setting the scheduling algorithm used by another process. */ /* Allow setting cpu affinity on other processes */ #define CAP_SYS_NICE 23 Looks liked dovecot_auth_t is changing #2 /* Allow use of FIFO and round-robin (realtime) scheduling on own processes and setting the scheduling algorithm used by another process. */ I just added this to F16 policy. Strange that we have never seen this before. Has there been a new release of dovecot? Not recently: * Thu Jan 13 2011 Michal Hlavinka <mhlavink> - 1:2.0.9-1 - dovecot updated to 2.0.9 * Thu Jan 13 2011 Michal Hlavinka <mhlavink> - 1:2.0.8-1 - dovecot updated to 2.0.8 (fixes #654226), pigeonhole updated to 0.2.2 Not sure when it got pushed out though.
