Description Daniel Scott 2010-06-08 21:10:05 UTC
Summary:

SELinux prevented my_print_defaul from reading files stored on a NFS filesytem.

Detailed Description:

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

SELinux prevented my_print_defaul from reading files stored on a NFS filesystem.
NFS (Network Filesystem) is a network filesystem commonly used on Unix / Linux
systems. my_print_defaul attempted to read one or more files or directories from
a mounted filesystem of this type. As NFS filesystems do not support
fine-grained SELinux labeling, all files and directories in the filesystem will
have the same security context. If you have not configured my_print_defaul to
read files from a NFS filesystem this access attempt could signal an intrusion
attempt.

Allowing Access:

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

Fix Command:

setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs=1
