Description Dell Lowry-Schiller 2021-02-26 18:03:58 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing NetworkManager from 'unlink' accesses on the file resolv.conf.

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests   *******************

If you want to allow NetworkManager to have unlink access on the resolv.conf file
Then you need to change the label on resolv.conf
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'resolv.conf'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: NetworkManager_etc_rw_t, NetworkManager_tmp_t, NetworkManager_var_lib_t, NetworkManager_var_run_t, dhcpc_state_t, dhcpc_var_run_t, dnsmasq_var_run_t, hostname_etc_t, named_cache_t, net_conf_t, pppd_var_run_t, ssh_home_t, systemd_passwd_var_run_t.
Then execute:
restorecon -v 'resolv.conf'


*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed unlink access on the resolv.conf 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:
# ausearch -c 'NetworkManager' --raw | audit2allow -M my-NetworkManager
# semodule -X 300 -i my-NetworkManager.pp
