Description paul 2010-07-24 08:18:42 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /bin/bash "write" access .

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by dhclient-script. It is not expected that this
access is required by dhclient-script 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 Miroslav Grepl 2010-07-26 08:36:49 UTC
Paul, 

looks like the bug #562338.

We added a new boolean

dhcpc_exec_iptables


So just try to execute

setsebool -P dhcpc_exec_iptables 1

Should fix for you.
