Hi everyone; I have a centralized logging server setup using syslog-ng
and redhat ES 4; I would like to enable selinux on this box (right now
it's in warn only mode), however I'm seeing the following warning in
/var/log/messages
kernel: audit(1148404063.302:9): avc: denied { read } for pid=2424
comm="syslog-ng" name="hosts" dev=dm-3 ino=64563
scontext=user_u:system_r:syslogd_t tcontext=root:object_r:var_log_t
tclass=lnk_file
I expect that if I put selinux to enforce, then I'm going to loose some
logging functionality; does anyone know how to enable the syslog-ng
selinux policy? Thanks
Syslong-ng policy looks like this:
getsebool use_syslogng
use_syslogng --> active
