my notebook. here is what i get
Jan 30 23:24:31 JimsNotebook kernel: audit(1107145471.689:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5085 exe=/usr/sbin/rndc name=hosts dev=hda8
ino=460335 scontext=user_u:system_r:ndc_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file

ino=460335 scontext=user_u:system_r:ndc_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file
does it have to do with named? bind?
Yes.
if so, is it a bug?
Probably. rndc is being used in a way not expected by the selinux policy you are using.
also, in addition to rebooting, if i try the actions shut down, i can get to the terminal screen where it is showing the different processes shutting down, and hangs til i pull the plug & remove the battery.
Which process does it appear to be trying to shut down when it hangs?
Paul.
