Dear all,
I have still yet to make the dhcpd server work because of selinux. I have been patient, but I am getting frustrated :(
[olivares@localhost ~]$ dmesg | grep avc type=1400 audit(1228956840.530:4): avc: denied { write } for pid=1499 comm="ip6tables-resto" path="/0" dev=devpts ino=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:devpts_t:s0 tclass=chr_file [olivares@localhost ~]$
I have already ran touch /.autorelabel; reboot and all of the other denials have been cleared but this one. I am not yet taking selinux off or getting that desparate, because when I booted in enforcing=0 mode for other troubles, the dhcpd server still did not work, but the iptables message was still there :(
Please advice me, I do not want to throw the towel yet!
Why do you think the DHCP server problem is SELinux related? The AVC here appears to be from starting the ip6tables service, and you say that the DCHP server still doesn't work in permissive mode...
What, if any, messages do you see in /var/log/messages from dhcpd?
Paul.
