Description of problem:
 * ipmidetectd uses too powerful SELinux domain

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freeipmi-ipmidetectd-1.2.9-2.el7.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.12.1-105.el7.noarch
selinux-policy-devel-3.12.1-105.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# echo "host 127.0.0.1" >> /etc/freeipmi/ipmidetectd.conf
# service ipmidetectd status
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status  ipmidetectd.service

Expected results:
 * ipmidetectd runs in its own SELinux domain

Milos,
is this a default port?

Comment 5 Milos Malik 2013-12-12 15:07:30 UTC
Excerpt from ipmidetectd.conf man page:

       ipmidetectd_server_port port
              Specify the alternate default port the ipmidetectd server
              should listen for requests off of. Default is 9225.
