Summary:

SELinux prevented kerneloops from using NIS (yp).

Detailed Description:

SELinux prevented kerneloops from using NIS (yp) for authentication. If you have
configured the system to use NIS this access is expected but is not currently
allowed by SELinux. Otherwise this access may signal an intrusion.

Allowing Access:

Changing the "allow_ypbind" boolean to true will allow this access: "setsebool
-P allow_ypbind=1."

Fix Command:

setsebool -P allow_ypbind=1
