Description of problem: Adding a new printer results in AVC Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-180.el5 Steps to Reproduce: 1. install virtualization group 2. run dom0 network config with dhcp 3. wait/force lease renwal Summary: Summary: SELinux is preventing dnsmasq (dnsmasq_t) "getattr" to /var/lib/libvirt/dhcp-default.leases (var_lib_t). Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was permitted due to permissive mode.] SELinux denied access requested by dnsmasq. It is not expected that this access is required by dnsmasq 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/libvirt/dhcp-default.leases, restorecon -v '/var/lib/libvirt/dhcp-default.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.
