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...

Postfix email program: msg#00117

Subject: Postfix email program
We use the Postfix email system and not sendmail. When selinux is in permissive mode, postfix will start. When selinux is enforcing with selinux-policy-targeted-1.27.1-2.1, it does not start.

These are the entries to audit.log when trying to start postfix with selinux enforcing.

I still do not know enough about selinux to know if I can relabel something of if this needs a new policy.

Thanks in advance for all help.
