SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/telepathy-idle from 'name_connect' accesses on the tcp_socket port 7000. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that telepathy-idle should be allowed name_connect access on the port 7000 tcp_socket by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep telepathy-idle /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:telepathy_idle_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:gatekeeper_port_t:s0 Target Objects port 7000 [ tcp_socket ] Source telepathy-idle Source Path /usr/libexec/telepathy-idle Port 7000 Host (removed) Source RPM Packages telepathy-idle-0.1.8-1.fc15 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.15-2.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.38-0.rc6.git6.1.fc15.i686.PAE #1 SMP Sat Feb 26 01:45:40 UTC 2011 i686 i686 Alert Count 6 First Seen Sun 06 Mar 2011 01:08:39 PM EST Last Seen Sun 06 Mar 2011 01:11:04 PM EST Local ID 95b494ba-b5f3-4a1a-aa25-94f120fee386 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1299435064.284:146): avc: denied { name_connect } for pid=27952 comm="telepathy-idle" dest=7000 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:telepathy_idle_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:gatekeeper_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1299435064.284:146): arch=i386 syscall=socketcall success=no exit=EACCES a0=3 a1=bfc2acb0 a2=806b66c a3=7 items=0 ppid=1 pid=27952 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=500 suid=500 fsuid=500 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=1 comm=telepathy-idle exe=/usr/libexec/telepathy-idle subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:telepathy_idle_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: telepathy-idle,telepathy_idle_t,gatekeeper_port_t,tcp_socket,name_connect audit2allow #============= telepathy_idle_t ============== allow telepathy_idle_t gatekeeper_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect; audit2allow -R #============= telepathy_idle_t ============== allow telepathy_idle_t gatekeeper_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect;
Fixed in the next F15 release. selinux-policy-3.9.16-1.fc15
"Freenode's standard port is 6667 but listen's for SSL connections on ports 7000 and 7070." wikipedia: 6660–6664 TCP Internet Relay Chat (IRC) Unofficial 6665–6669 TCP Internet Relay Chat (IRC) Official 6679 TCP IRC SSL (Secure Internet Relay Chat)—often used Unofficial 6697 TCP IRC SSL (Secure Internet Relay Chat)—often used Not an official irc server port but i guess unofficially it is somehow because linknet also uses tcp:7000 for SSL..
