Description of problem: I tried to connect to an openvpn vpn using the gnome-3 NetworkManager "applet" SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/openvpn from 'name_bind' accesses on the tcp_socket . ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that openvpn should be allowed name_bind access on the tcp_socket by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep openvpn /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:openvpn_port_t:s0 Target Objects [ tcp_socket ] Source openvpn Source Path /usr/sbin/openvpn Port 1194 Host (removed) Source RPM Packages openvpn-2.3.2-3.fc20.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-72.fc20.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.11.0-0.rc6.git2.1.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 22 21:36:09 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2013-08-25 11:13:31 CEST Last Seen 2013-08-25 11:14:39 CEST Local ID 5c05b587-bb57-454f-a720-3d106a08fea7 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1377422079.298:463): avc: denied { name_bind } for pid=3381 comm="openvpn" src=1194 scontext=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:openvpn_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1377422079.298:463): arch=x86_64 syscall=bind success=yes exit=0 a0=4 a1=7f82c5b598e8 a2=10 a3=7fffc1514f74 items=0 ppid=3346 pid=3381 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=openvpn exe=/usr/sbin/openvpn subj=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: openvpn,NetworkManager_t,openvpn_port_t,tcp_socket,name_bind Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.11.0-0.rc6.git2.1.fc20.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 876983
This is with a fully up2date F-20 system.
ls -lZ /usr/sbin/openvpn Could you try restorecon -R -v /usr/sbin And see if this fixes lots of labels?
Yes, it looks Hans has the same problem with labeling.
(In reply to Daniel Walsh from comment #2) > ls -lZ /usr/sbin/openvpn > > > Could you try > > restorecon -R -v /usr/sbin > > And see if this fixes lots of labels? Ah, yes that fixes a lot of labels. Seems somehow the re-labelling when doing a yum distro-sync from F-19 -> F-20 did not happen properly. I should have known better and done a "touch /.autorelabel && reboot" when I was having selinux troubles after the upgrade, sorry about the noise.
