Dear Kind Folks,
I recently updated one of my machines at work which
was running Fedora Core 3 to kernel-2.6.12-1.1381 via
yum. When I rebooted and booted to the new kernel, I
fired up firefox and could not load yahoo webpage. I
tried google, Fedorafaq, Distrowatch and nothing. I
suspected Selinux could be the culprit, so I did:
Hat -> System Settings -> Security Level and disabled
selinux. Rebooted with new settings and viola I could
see yahoo, distrowatch, google, etc. I went to
terminal fired up yum and yum update selinux and gave
me error message. I tried again this time with
selinux-targetpolicy? (not to sure) but it went
through. I reenabled selinux, and rebooted and could
not view any webpages again. I will get back to the
machine on Monday, and it makes me wonder about what
do I need to do, which updates I need to run.
kernel installed -> [kernel-2.6.12-1.1381_FC3.i686]
I read very carefully the FAQ for SELinux from
http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/info/faq.cfm
but I am still clueless. I would like to keep selinux
enabled and still view webpages. How can I still do
that?
post to the fedora-selinux list with the AVC denied messages in
/var/log/messages. Fedora SELinux FAQ is available from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq/
