Description Charles R. Anderson 2004-03-22 06:56:33 UTC 
Description of problem:

Mozilla fails to start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

policy-1.9-5
mozilla-1.6-2

How reproducible:

Click on web broswer icon in panel, or open terminal window and type
"mozilla"

Steps to Reproduce:
1. System Tools -> Terminal
2. bash -e mozilla
3.
  
Actual results:

[cra@foo cra]$ bash -e /usr/bin/mozilla
/usr/bin/mozilla: line 37: ulimit: core file size: cannot modify limit: 
Permission denied

Expected results:

I guess ulimit has to be allowed in the policy, or removed from the
startup script.

Could you grab the AVC messages from the message file?
