Since nobody has come up with a policy for eons I guess there is little
incentive to provide one. When you go through the OTRS website it
basically only says "turn off selinux" (which imho is pretty silly).
There was one person that tried to create a policy:
http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/dev/2005-September/001109.html
The #selinux channel on irc.freenode.net has always been helpful and
patient even with my n00b questions. If you have all the info from the
audit log then I would venture in there, put the audit log on a pastebin
and ask how to proceed next.
If you create a proper policy I would appreciate it if you could keep
this list updated. From what I have read OTRS seems a nice solution but
not when I have to turn off selinux.

Patrick
