Description of problem: Newly installed Fedora 9; configured wired and wireless adaptors to be managed by Network Manager, restarted network service; received SELinux error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): N/A How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. As above 2. 3. Actual results: ===== Copy from setroubleshoot starts Summary: SELinux is preventing consoletype (consoletype_t) "read" to /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth1.leases (dhcpc_state_t). Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by consoletype. It is not expected that this access is required by consoletype 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: Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore the default system file context for /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth1.leases, restorecon -v '/var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth1.leases' If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package.

dhcp or some other app that opens /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth1.leases is leaking the file descriptor. All file descriptors should be closed on exec fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOSEXEC)
