Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

FC3 Strict Policy: msg#00190

Subject: FC3 Strict Policy
Hello Everyone!

I'm trying my first foray into experimenting with SELinux, and am
failing before I even get very far.  I've installed Fedora Core 3 and
have enabled the SELinux strict policy.  The only way I can log into
the system now is if I put the system into permissive mode.  Here's
the denied errors I'm getting:

May 27 15:15:18 localhost kernel: audit(1117232118.583:0): avc: 
denied  { getattr } for  pid=4380 exe=/sbin/unix_chkpwd
path=/var/run/winbindd dev=sda1 ino=1653914
scontext=system_u:system_r:system_chkpwd_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_run_t tclass=dir
May 27 15:15:18 localhost kernel: audit(1117232118.586:0): avc:  denied  { read
write } for  pid=4381 exe=/sbin/unix_chkpwd name=tty2 dev=tmpfs
ino=2025 scontext=system_u:system_r:system_chkpwd_t
tcontext=root:object_r:sysadm_tty_device_t tclass=chr_file
May 27 15:15:18 localhost kernel: audit(1117232118.589:0): avc: 
denied  { getattr } for  pid=4291 exe=/bin/login
path=/var/run/winbindd dev=sda1 ino=1653914
scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_run_t tclass=dir
May 27 15:15:18 localhost kernel: audit(1117232118.590:0): avc: 
denied  { getattr } for  pid=4291 exe=/bin/login path=/root dev=sda1
ino=1864129 scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t
tcontext=root:object_r:staff_home_dir_t tclass=dir

The system is fully up to date via yum.  I realize some problems can
be expected when using the strict policy as opposed to targeted - but
I can't believe the strict policy would ship in a configuration that
prevents logging into the system.

Anyone got any suggestions - I can't believe I'm the only person who's
faced this, but I did a lot of searching online and couldn't find
anything.
