:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that pptp should be allowed name_connect access on the port 1723 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 pptpcm /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Maciek Borzecki 2011-10-07 19:39:28 UTC
Happens every time I try to VPN into office. IIRC it used to work in F15.

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2011-10-10 10:18:19 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.10.0-39.fc16

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2011-10-11 17:18:21 UTC
Miroslav how did you fix this?  Why not add a label for pptp_port_t?

grep pptp /etc/services 
pptp            1723/tcp                # pptp
pptp            1723/udp                # pptp

Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2011-10-11 18:38:17 UTC
Fixed in -40.fc16 release.
