Phil -
Thanks for the pointer. It looks like cobbler is doing the following
check:
LOG_FILE = "/var/log/cobbler/cobbler.log"
if os.access(LOG_FILE, os.W_OK):
and it looks like this access() check triggers the write denial. I'm
having difficulty finding a check just for append access. Any ideas?

Hi,
From the policy it looks like cobbler should only be allowed to
"append" to the log file and not "write" (overwrite) it:
allow daemon logfile:file { append getattr ioctl lock };
So the question is, why is cobbler doing something other than appending
to its log?
Cheers
Phil
