newrole -r secadm_r -l SystemHigh
Transcript:
-bash-3.1# newrole -r secadm_r -l SystemHigh
Authenticating root.
Password:
[root@dyn94141107 ~]# auditctl -l
bash: /sbin/auditctl: Permission denied
[root@dyn94141107 ~]# ls -alZ /sbin/auditctl
-rwxr-x--- root root system_u:object_r:auditctl_exec_t:SystemLow
/sbin/auditctl
[root@dyn94141107 ~]# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel)
context=root:secadm_r:secadm_t:SystemHigh
Its clear from here this is not a DAC issue, but at this point my grasp of
the policy is lacking. My policy packages are:
selinux-policy-2.2.23-15
selinux-policy-targeted-2.2.23-15
selinux-policy-mls-2.2.23-15
Am I out of date with policy?
Thanks,
Mike
