Description Aleksey Nogin 2004-03-08 10:07:25 UTC 
I am seeing

avc:  denied  { getattr } for  pid=2567 exe=/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86
path=/var/run/xauth/A:0-NutpF4 dev=hda2 ino=1144708
scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_xserver_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_run_t tclass=file

in my logs. Should the X server be allowed to do this?
