G'day all, |

I'm having some problems with selinux and devfs. selinux does not support devfs but without devfs normal users |
| 4 |
can't start xterms. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I've tried a number of kernels (all 2.6.4-hardened-r3) with different configurations. |
| 7 |
All kernels without devfs result in the pty problem: |
| 8 |
xterm: Error 32, errno 2: No such file or directory |
| 9 |
Reason: get_pty: not enough ptys |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
selinux enabled kernels with devfs result in a large number of "avc: denied .." messages. If I understand correctly |
| 12 |
the dynamically created devices can't be labelled properly. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The solution for non-selinux systems is obviously enabling devfs (as mentioned in a number of threads on |
| 15 |
forums.gentoo), but for selinux creates the other problem. |
| 16 |
Any ideas on how to have both selinux and the usual use of pty's? |
