Description Daniel Qarras 2009-12-04 19:37:20 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/sshd "module_request" access.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by sshd. It is not expected that this access is
required by sshd 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 FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2009-12-05 12:08:31 UTC
Did you disable ipv6?

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 527936 ***

Comment 2 Daniel Qarras 2009-12-05 13:30:36 UTC
Yes, I've got IPv6 disabled (zero need and some local applications are getting confused with it) - I hope IPv4 setup is a configuration which is supposed to work?

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2009-12-05 23:40:44 UTC
Yes this is a basic bug that you can ignore for now, as we work to create a better solution.
