RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

OpenVPN allows one to use socket files for the management interface instead of TCP ports. This is important in servers where non-admin users are also allowed to SSH in, because limits their access to the management interface.

Example directive:
management /var/run/openvpn/management-tcp unix
management-client-user root

However there is no SELinux rule in RHEL7 that allows creation of such socket file, so I had to create one by my own:

***
module ovpn 1.0;

require {
  type openvpn_t;
  type openvpn_var_run_t;
  class sock_file { create read write unlink };
}

#============= openvpn_t ==============
allow openvpn_t openvpn_var_run_t:sock_file { create read write unlink };
***

I wonder if it would be possible to integrate this into the package shipped in the EPEL repo.

This should go in selinux-policy, reassigning.
