Kerberos Authentication for CUPS web interface is not working when selinux is in enforcing mode.

Nalin: this seems to be in pam_krb5 -- any idea what's going on here? Does this allow line look right to you?
Tim, this is cups needing to be able to manipulate Kerberos replay caches, specifically being able to purge expired entries from them. Dan, is cupsd_t one of the domains that can do that in the upcoming RHEL 6 builds (either directly, or as a user of PAM)?
Miroslav add optional_policy(` kerberos_manage_host_rcache(cupsd_t) ')
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.7.19-108.el6
Thanks everyone for such a fast resolution! Greatly appreciated!
