I have created SeLinux users using "semanage user" and tied the SeLinux
users to Linux users using "semanage login". I find that on startup,
there are several warnings thrown for "Multiple same specifications".
Below is an example
/etc/selinux/strict/contexts/files/file_contexts: Multiple same
specifications for /dev/null/\.screenrc
I then checked and found that file_contexts has
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
ccmusergrp_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
ccmusergrp_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
specialuser_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
ccmusergrp_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
ccmusergrp_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
file_contexts.homedirs:/dev/null/\.screenrc --
specialuser_u:object_r:user_screen_ro_home_t:s0
Looks like there is an entry for every Linux user I tied to the SeLinux
user.
I am using
libselinux-1.33.4-5.5.el5
libsemanage-1.9.1-4.4.el5
policycoreutils-1.33.12-14.8.el5
libsepol-1.15.2-3.el5
and do not have an option to move to later releases.
Is there a way for me to get rid of these warnings or suppress them,
without changing the source code provided by RedHat?
Thanks,
Radha.
