New policy on ftp://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/Fedora

Hi Dan,

I just tried the recent policy files available from the above listed people page, and I'm being DoS'd from my own machine with a stream of audit avc denied messages. From what I can gleam from the stream of text, itklogd is being denied {search}.

Sorry, that should read "its 'klogd' being denied {search}". I never got that logged so I can't send you the exact message. If I manage to trap it, I'll send it on. Having the system boot the MLS policy with enforcing mode on as default will cause this DoS to appear for me. Booting with permissive mode is fine. On the plus side, auditctl works for secadm_r, but has lost access to the /root directory, which secadm_r previous had access to.
