# cat /tmp/winbind.log |audit2allow #============= winbind_t ============== #!!!! This avc can be allowed using one of the these booleans: # authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap, allow_ypbind allow winbind_t ldap_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect; Also the sealert should tell you what to do. # setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1 The bug was assigned to authconfig because when one calls it (or system-config-authentication) to enable authentication via winbind, he won't expect that he has to do anything else to make desired configuration work and conversely, when user disables remote authentication again, he won't expect that he will have to change boolean to get back to default security setting. If authconfig/system-config-authentication can not modify selinux booleans for any reason, it should at least check if they are in line with authentication settings and give big phat warning if not. Reopening and resetting back to authconfig. This should be done in the winbindd systemd unit. The boolean should be enabled automatically (without the -P) when the winbindd is started. The same way it is done in the ypbind init script. (In reply to comment #1) > # cat /tmp/winbind.log |audit2allow > > > #============= winbind_t ============== > #!!!!

Otherwise I am not sure what this has to do with nsswitch ? This is teh winbind daemon that is apparently being blocked. Why should we try to work around it by using the nsswitch boolean ? The winbind daemon should always be allowed to use LDAP, it is what it does. And at the same time there is no reason to allow any nss library to access LDAPbecause with both SSSD and Winbindd the nss libs use a domain socket to connect to the daemon and then the daemon connects to LDAP, we do not want to allow random application to connect to LDAP in this case. Or is there something I am missing ? Ok I did not know that winbind connected directly to ldap, I thought it would do this through sssd. Yes our goal is to prevent random apps that use ldap for identity from using it, since they should be using sssd. But we still have the boolean for users who choose not to use sssd but use pam_ldap. Miroslav backport 6ce5571eb1bd7d4c76bd5750058223a12622121a To F16. Winbind (the daemon not nss_winbind or pam_winbind) is analogous and parallel to sssd for now. But even with sssd integration, at least in the short term sssd will connect to winbind and winbind will connect to AD (LDAP, KRB, CLDAP, MS-RPC, SMB). So please do not constrain the winbind daemon from using all these protocols or we will have very strange and difficult to debug failures. I have checked in a fix for Rawhide, just need to wait for it to be back ported to F16. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19 This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
