I recently installed syslog-ng successfully on a FC3-SELinux enabled box. Everything is fine except that:
# service syslog-ng status syslog-ng dead but subsys locked # ls --context /var/lock/subsys/syslog-ng -rw------- root root root:object_r:var_lock_t syslog-ng The root:object_r:var_lock_t should have been user_u:object_r:var_lock_t, and that is what is causing syslog-ng daemon to die. Also, the file permissions generally are 666. One easy way is to switch off SELinux for syslog-ng, but is there a better way?? Why are the permissions wrong?? ---- Sorry, I had to re-post this, after I first posted at http://lug-delhi.org, the on line web front end to the mailing list. The post did not appear more than 2 hours later, neither on the forum nor on the mailing list. Thought it to be appropirate to risk a re-post. ---- Anand Shankar _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
