Description mach 2010-05-27 16:59:24 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/hddtemp "read" access on /etc/gai.conf.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by hddtemp. It is not expected that this access
is required by hddtemp 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2010-05-27 18:54:31 UTC
Is hddtemp supposed to read this file.
