:SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/smbcontrol from 'read' accesses on the file smbd.pid.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that smbcontrol should be allowed read access on the smbd.pid 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 smbcontrol /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-04-20 07:59:13 EDT

Did you run smbd by hand? It look so.

Please execute

$ systemctl restart smb.service

Then smbd will run in the proper domain and the pid file will create with the correct label.
