(?) If you are using Fedora, then this would be best directed to selinux@lists.fedoraproject.org (formerly fedora-selinux-list@redhat.com).

Yes, in fact the error came only once and the change was commited anyway, therefore it's more by curiosity than a real problem, but I think it's always better to be sure ;-) > It would help to identify your distribution, shadow-utils version, > SELinux status (sestatus), etc. I am using CentOS (for the first time, choice of our provider).
