Hi Todd, that means you are trying to save session.key into directory where SELinux is forbidding write access to named. Session.key is file created once per start and removed before shutdown. I think you have something wrong with link /var/run/named -> /run/named link. Default built-in value is /var/run/named/session.key. Default Fedora configuration uses /run/named/session.key. Both paths should work without difference.
Correct selinux type for files in /run/named is named_var_run_t. I think you should run instead: $ restorecon -rv /run/named /var/run/named Then restart named service. Context of a new file should be already correct. Do you have this option in you configuration file? What is its value? # options { ... session-keyfile "/run/named/session.key"; It would be helpful if you include you configuration in readable form, please. Listed types are more likely types named is allowed to touch. I admit SELinux errors are often confusing. What you written here are hints to you how to solve the error, not the error itself. More helpful errors would be printed by: $ ausearch -i -ts today -m avc -m user_avc -m selinux_err Regards, Petr -- Petr Menšík Software Engineer Red Hat, http://www.redhat.com/ email: pemen...@redhat.com PGP: 65C6C973 ----- Original Message ----- From: "ToddAndMargo" <toddandma...@zoho.com> To: bind-users@lists.isc.org Sent: Friday, August 11, 2017 10:39:11 PM Subject: Confused about SELinux error Hi All, What does this SELinux error mean when I start bin-chroot? # semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'session.key' where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: dnssec_trigger_var_run_t, ipa_var_lib_t, krb5_host_rcache_t, krb5_keytab_t, named_cache_t, named_log_t, named_tmp_t, named_var_run_t. # semanage fcontext -a -t named_var_run_t 'session.key' # restorecon -v 'session.key' How am I suppose to know what "FILE_TYPE" they are talking about? -T _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
