| 15 |
you can allow both getcap and setcap for init_t. |
| 16 |
sysvinit uses the __NR_capget and __NR_capset syscalls and those generate the avc message. |

show us the exact avc message. |
| 25 |
you also might want to inspect the processed rules in policy.conf to see if the dontaudits are actually there, or maybe they got left out for some reason. |

looks harmless. if your command succeeds in enforcing mode you can ignore errors like this one. |
