Description Gene Czarcinski 2005-05-04 11:06:42 UTC
Description of problem:

OK, stuff was added to selinux and bind to support permitting dynamic dns
updating from dhcpd and this worked at one time.  Unfortunately for bind,
selinux (and system-config-securitylevel) changed how locally modified
"variables" were set.  Whereas /etc/selinux/targeted/booleans was modified
previously, now /etc/selinux/targeted/booleans is not chenged and local changes
are put in /etc/selinux/targeted/booleans.local.

Unfortunately, bind was not updated for this change.  /etc/init.d/named needs to
be changed to check for BOTH /etc/selinux/targeted/booleans and
/etc/selinux/targeted/boolenas.local for the value of named_write_master_zones.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC4T2 updated to development as of 3 May 2005
bind-9.3.1-2_FC4

Comment 1 Gene Czarcinski 2005-05-04 11:10:11 UTC
NOTE:  If named_write_master_zones is specified in
/etc/selinux/targeted/booleans.local, then this value (0 or 1) dominates and
anything in /etc/selinux/targeted/booleans is ignored.  If not specified in
/etc/selinux/targeted/booleans.local, then the value in
/etc/selinux/targeted/booleans will rule.

NOTE: "targeted" and "strict" should work the same but I doubt that strict is as
well tested.

Comment 2 Jason Vas Dias 2005-05-04 13:30:13 UTC
OK, I'll make the next version of the named initscript check 
/etc/selinux/targeted/booleans.local for
named_write_master_zones .



Comment 3 Jason Vas Dias 2005-05-18 02:31:49 UTC
This is now fixed with bind-9.3.1-4 in rawhide-2005-05-18 / FC4

Closing bugs in MODIFIED state from prior Fedora releases. If this bug persists
in a current Fedora release (such as Fedora Core 5 or later), please reopen and
set the version appropriately.
