Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Filip Bartmann 2012-12-28 13:01:43 UTC 
Description of problem:
SELinux don't allow postqueue to run under sysadm_t


How reproducible:
Run postqueue -p with selinux in enforced mode with sysadmin_t user type.

 
Actual results:
postqueue -p
postqueue: fatal: Connect to the Postfix showq service: Permission denied

and audit2allow show:

allow sysadm_t postfix_master_t:unix_stream_socket connectto;
allow sysadm_t postfix_public_t:sock_file write;

Expected results:
Show postqueue results

Additional info:
When I add this macro:
domtrans_pattern(sysadm_t, postfix_postqueue_exec_t, postfix_postqueue_t)
then all start working fine.

Dan added fixes to Fedora which need to be backported. Thank you for using confined users.
