Hi,

Some time ago I had SELinux problems with Fail2ban. One of the users on this list suggested that it might be due to the fact that I'm using a bone-headed iptables script instead of FirewallD.

I've spent the past few weeks getting up to date with doing things in a more orthodox manner. So currently my internet-facing CentOS server has a nicely configured NetworkManager, and FirewallD has replaced the iptables script.

Unfortunately when I install FirewallD from EPEL, I still get the same error.

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python2.7 from read access on the file disable.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   *****

If you believe that python2.7 should be allowed read access on the disable file 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:
# ausearch -c 'f2b/server' --raw | audit2allow -M my-f2bserver
# semodule -i my-f2bserver.pp

Weirdly enough, when I follow this suggestion and then empty audit.log and restart my server, I still get the exact same error again.

Which makes Fail2ban unusable with SELinux in enforcing mode in the current 
state.

Any suggestions ?

Niki
