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.
