Description William Brown 2014-06-25 12:49:38 UTC
Description of problem:
Ran the command ss -tlnp
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/ss from 'nlmsg_read' accesses on the netlink_tcpdiag_socket .

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

If you believe that ss should be allowed nlmsg_read access on the  netlink_tcpdiag_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 ss /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
