Description Tomáš Hozza 2015-02-24 13:52:16 UTC 
Description of problem:
SELinux policy does not allow dnssec-triggerd to write to /etc, thus dnssec-triggerd is not able to write /etc/resolv.conf and my system ends up without /etc/resolv.conf completely.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.13.1-105.3.fc21.noarch
dnssec-trigger-0.12-17.fc22.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:

Actual results:

Feb 24 09:02:48 thozza-pc python[13665]: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/dnssec-triggerd from write access on the directory /etc.
                                         
                                         *****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests   *******************
                                         
                                         If you want to allow dnssec-triggerd to have write access on the etc directory
                                         Then you need to change the label on /etc
                                         Do
                                         # semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/etc'
                                         where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: dnssec_trigger_var_run_t, net_conf_t, var_run_t. 
                                         Then execute: 
                                         restorecon -v '/etc'
                                         
                                         
                                         *****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests   **************************
                                         
                                         If you believe that dnssec-triggerd should be allowed write access on the etc directory by default.
                                         Then you should report this as a bug.
                                         You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
                                         Do
                                         allow this access for now by executing:
                                         # grep dnssec-triggerd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
                                         # semodule -i mypol.pp


Expected results:
SELinux NOT preventing dnssec-triggerd to write to /etc/resolv.conf!
