Actual results:
* sfcbd runs as initrc_t

Expected results:
* sfcbd runs in its own SELinux domain

Comment 1 Milos Malik 2012-04-10 20:48:52 UTC
The daemon is not confined by SELinux. Please help SELinux folks to create a suitable policy module. You know that we should minimize the number of programs running as initrc_t, don't you?

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-09-07 05:07:26 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
