Description of problem: SELinux is preventing access to files with the label, file_t. Target Objects: ./keyboard [ file ] Source: rhgb Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-2.4.6-158.el5 rhgb-0.16.4-8.el5 How reproducible: Unclear ------------- Summary: SELinux is preventing access to files with the label, file_t. Detailed Description: SELinux permission checks on files labeled file_t are being denied. file_t is the context the SELinux kernel gives to files that do not have a label. This indicates a serious labeling problem. No files on an SELinux box should ever be labeled file_t. If you have just added a new disk drive to the system you can relabel it using the restorecon command. Otherwise you should relabel the entire files system. Allowing Access: You can execute the following command as root to relabel your computer system: "touch /.autorelabel; reboot" Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:rhgb_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 Target Objects ./keyboard [ file ] Source rhgb Source Path <Unknown> Port <Unknown> Host dhcp-100-2-166.bos.redhat.com Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-2.4.6-158.el5 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name file Host Name dhcp-100-2-166.bos.redhat.com Platform Linux dhcp-100-2-166.bos.redhat.com 2.6.18-116.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 18 18:12:38 EDT 2008 i686 i686 Alert Count 80 First Seen Wed 24 Sep 2008 02:08:26 PM EDT Last Seen Mon 29 Sep 2008 10:03:33 AM EDT Local ID 9387db21-f259-46bb-829f-61c943796cb4 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages host=dhcp-100-2-166.bos.redhat.com type=AVC msg=audit(1222697013.986:25): avc: denied { read } for pid=1943 comm="rhgb" name="keyboard" dev=dm-0 ino=2686991 scontext=system_u:system_r:rhgb_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file
Looks like a dupe of bug 463785 to me.
Agreed. Sorry! Hadn't found that one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 463785 ***
