Description Peter Oliver 2014-08-05 16:18:57 UTC
Description of problem:
rhn-ssl-tool installs a key and certificate into /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key and /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt respectively (with symlinks from /etc/pki/tls/private/spacewalk.key and /etc/pki/tls/certs/spacewalk.crt).  Here, they inherint the SELinux context httpd_config_t.  Would cert_t be a more appropriate context for these files?

I'd like to use certmonger to remind me to renew the certificate, but SELinux currently prevents this.

We have re-reviewed this bug, as part of an ongoing effort to improve Satellite/Proxy feature and bug updates, review and backlog.

This is a low priority bug and has no currently open customer cases. While this bug may still valid, we do not see it being implemented prior to the EOL of the Satellite 5.x product. As such, this is being CLOSED DEFERRED. 

Closing now to help set customer expectations as early as possible. You are welcome to re-open this bug if needed.
