Description of problem: install sendmail start sendmail the alert comes SELinux is preventing sendmail from 'read' accesses on the file mail. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that sendmail should be allowed read access on the mail file 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 sendmail /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:system_mail_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 Target Objects mail [ file ] Source sendmail Source Path sendmail Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-105.11.fc21.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.19.3-200.fc21.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 26 21:39:42 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1319 First Seen 2015-04-23 15:06:54 BST Last Seen 2015-04-24 14:47:50 BST Local ID 2482918c-67ce-4544-8fe1-dae9f045ed1e Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1429883270.218:725): avc: denied { read } for pid=4610 comm="sendmail" name="mail" dev="dm-0" ino=3810839 scontext=system_u:system_r:system_mail_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 Hash: sendmail,system_mail_t,root_t,file,read Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-105.11.fc21.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.3.0 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.19.3-200.fc21.x86_64 type: libreport
