Alert from turning off/on wireless

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On my (very old) laptop, I turned off the wireless (via the hardware
switch) then turned it back on, generating an alert.  This action
should be allowed by the default policy.  (Fedora 17)


SELinux is preventing NetworkManager from read access on the file
/etc/sysctl.conf.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed read access on
the sysctl.conf file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep NetworkManager /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
