Description Jim Cornette 2007-12-02 04:44:28 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Boot with kernel-2.6.23.1-49.fc8 with SELinux in permissive, using gdm as
display manager to start GNOME.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot with enforcing=0
2. Click on user and enter password in gdm
3. Open troubleshooter browser and evaluate errors.
  
Actual results:
Errors in SELinux troubleshooter browser

Expected results:

Expected some since user environment for gdm changed from previous nd other
testers are going back to older versions of gdm.
Summary
    SELinux is preventing /bin/dbus-daemon (xdm_t) "bind" to <Unknown> (xdm_t).

Detailed Description
    SELinux denied access requested by /bin/dbus-daemon. It is not expected that
    this access is required by /bin/dbus-daemon and this access may signal an
    intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or
    configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access
    You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see
    http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable
    SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not
    recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi
    against this package.
