Description of problem: I typed 'systemctl enable winbind && systemctl start winbind' SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/winbindd from 'write' accesses on the directory /var/cache. ***** Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests ******************** If you want to allow winbindd to have write access on the cache directory Then you need to change the label on /var/cache Do # semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/var/cache' where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: var_log_t, ctdbd_var_lib_t, pcscd_var_run_t, samba_var_t, var_run_t, smbd_var_run_t, samba_etc_t, samba_log_t, user_home_dir_t, winbind_var_run_t, tmp_t, user_tmp_t, auth_cache_t, user_home_t. Then execute: restorecon -v '/var/cache' ***** Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that winbindd should be allowed write access on the cache directory 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 winbindd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:winbind_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:var_t:s0 Target Objects /var/cache [ dir ] Source winbindd Source Path /usr/sbin/winbindd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages samba-winbind-4.0.0-170.fc18.rc6.x86_64 Target RPM Packages filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-59.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.6.9-4.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 4 14:12:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2012-12-06 19:14:53 MST Last Seen 2012-12-06 19:14:53 MST Local ID ff64531d-5bad-4191-80cc-13b5e68d930f Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1354846493.173:435): avc: denied { write } for pid=3625 comm="winbindd" name="cache" dev="dm-2" ino=13 scontext=system_u:system_r:winbind_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1354846493.173:435): arch=x86_64 syscall=mkdir success=no exit=EACCES a0=25ce2a0 a1=1ed a2=0 a3=61 items=0 ppid=1 pid=3625 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=winbindd exe=/usr/sbin/winbindd subj=system_u:system_r:winbind_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: winbindd,winbind_t,var_t,dir,write audit2allow #============= winbind_t ============== #!!!!
