This is a bug in FreeIPA (specifically ipa-client-install). pam_mkhomedir is not SELinux-compatible. There is an alternative called oddjob_mkhomedir that is. ipa-client-install will use whichever one is installed on the system. In the default case, that unfortunately means pam_mkhomedir. In Fedora 17, the 'freeipa-client' package grew an explicit dependency on oddjob_mkhomedir to ensure that the SELinux-compatible package was available. We need to backport that specfile change to F16. In the meantime, you can solve this for an installed system by doing: yum install oddjob-mkhomedir Replacing all instances of pam_mkhomedir.so in /etc/pam.d/* with pam_oddkob_mkhomedir.so Then at least all new users that log in will be set up with the appropriate SELinux contexts. freeipa-2.1.4-8.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/freeipa-2.1.4-8.fc16 removed the installed selinux policies, deleted the /home directories for freeipa users and updated the freeipa packages. tested and all is working now thanks!!! This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. 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 prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Not sure why this is still open, closing as VERIFIED. Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. Changing CLOSED status resolution from WONTFIX to ERRATA as this was properly closed, we just forgot to CLOSE it properly. |
