SELinux is preventing ntpd from 'read' accesses on the file /etc/resolv.conf. ***** Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to fix the label. /etc/resolv.conf default label should be net_conf_t. Then you can run restorecon. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /etc/resolv.conf ***** Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that ntpd should be allowed read access on the resolv.conf file 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 ntpd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:ntpd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_lib_t:s0 Target Objects /etc/resolv.conf [ file ] Source ntpd Source Path ntpd Port <Unbekannt> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.16-38.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.40.1-1.fc15.i686.PAE #1 SMP Sat Aug 6 06:02:30 UTC 2011 i686 i686 Alert Count 3 First Seen Sa 13 Aug 2011 17:06:37 CEST Last Seen Sa 13 Aug 2011 17:08:41 CEST Local ID 2d5e3247-fb0d-4e0a-82bd-a25db6467d81 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1313248121.634:68): avc: denied { read } for pid=828 comm="ntpd" name="resolv.conf" dev=dm-1 ino=1838139 scontext=system_u:system_r:ntpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_lib_t:s0 tclass=file Hash: ntpd,ntpd_t,NetworkManager_var_lib_t,file,read audit2allow #============= ntpd_t ============== allow ntpd_t NetworkManager_var_lib_t:file read; audit2allow -R #============= ntpd_t ============== allow ntpd_t NetworkManager_var_lib_t:file read;

Somewhere in the NetworkManager stack, it is creating a new resolv.conf and then mv'ing it to /etc directory. It should be executing a restorecon on the file after the move.
