Description Will Tisdale 2013-10-06 14:19:25 UTC
Description of problem:
This access is required by the apcupsd package.
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/wall from 'search' accesses on the directory /var/lib/sss.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that wall should be allowed search access on the sss directory 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 wall /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Furthermore, it also wants search access to /var/lib/sss/mc, as per the below:

If you believe that wall should be allowed search access on the mc directory by default.

# grep wall /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
