Hi Guys,

After some moths the server has been running in SELinux Permesive mode
... Some avc: denied messages has been recored ... I thought it was
time to go to the next step and set SELinux Enforcing mode in the
server ... it is a mail(postfix+cyrus+sasl), web, snmp with mrtg,
squid sever with a local TLS configured for webmail access ... I took
a look to the Deployment Guide about how to do it ... and tried to
build modules with audit2allow from the /var/log/message

The modules seem to work fine, because old avc denied messages
desappeard ... but some messages like the following appear at
/var/log/messages when I do a semodule -i modulename or semodule -r
modulename :

sd_t:s0 msg='avc: received policyload notice (seqno=6)

Also, in the /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log the following messages appear too:

[Sun Oct 05 19:58:19 2008] [warn] RSA server certificate is a CA
certificate (BasicConstraints: CA == TRUE !?)
[Sun Oct 05 19:58:19 2008] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName
(CN) `orion.ciget.cienfuegos.cu' does NOT match server nam
e!?

Really rare to me because that name `orion.ciget.cienfuegos.cu' is the
actual server hostname. When try to connect to the webmail through
https:// can't connect to it, the browser reports connection failed
after a waiting of a few seconds. http:// works as expected.

This machine is fully updated in CentOS-5.2.

Linux orion.ciget.cienfuegos.cu 2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 #1 SMP Wed Sep 24
19:33:52 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Could you suggest something ? ...

Thank you very much guys,
al.

Still looking for the meaning of this ...

Not too rare now :-) ... That happend when I used
system-config-securitylevel-tui tool. I opened 443 manually in
/etc/sysconfig/iptables then when tried to enforce SELinux it (Secure
www) was not set there, so the /etc/sysconfig/iptables was rewrote and
443 line was lost. It is fixed now :-).

Cheers,
