Summary:

SELinux is preventing nm-system-setti (NetworkManager_t) "read" to ./PolicyKit
(polkit_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 nm-system-setti. It is not expected that this
access is required by nm-system-setti 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 ./PolicyKit,

restorecon -v './PolicyKit'

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.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.unlock default keyring with password
2.if i wasn't running in permissive mode, i'd be denied access every time.
3.
Actual Results:  
i get the setroubleshoot browser...

Expected Results:  
it should have allowed access

it was recommended i try

restorecon -v './PolicyKit'

i did twice...the first time it couldn't find the command


the second time it couldn't find "policyKit."
