The kicker was probably this line: Sep 6 15:44:40 ns3 audit: <audit-1400> { write } for pid=15447 comm="named" name="named.secroots" dev="dm-0" ino=135707451 scontext=system_u:system_r:named_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:etc_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0
The SELinux context that BIND runs in on a red hat system doesn't have access to write to a file of etc_t. After moving the file to /var/named somewhere, a restorecon should have reset it to something like var_named_t or var_named_cache_t which it would have had access to write to. >From the line, 'permissive=0' so it suggests a SELinux-enforcing environment. Stuart From: bind-users [mailto:bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of Brent Swingle Sent: Friday, 7 September 2018 12:05 PM To: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Re: [BIND] RE: KSK Rollover This matter has been resolved with input from Evan. I was able to add a file path for secroots to the named.conf file and push the output file to a temp directory that was not permission restricted. secroots-file "/tmp/named.secroots" ; Ultimately when I ran "rndc secroots" it created the output file here: /tmp/systemd-private-b2ebff459df9471e8bf444e2d2b1116e-named.service-HX1NF5/tmp/named.secroots The data in the file seems to be as desired if I understand the KSK Rollover test correctly, I should see 20326 which pertains to the new key: [root@ns3 tmp]# cat named.secroots 06-Sep-2018 18:47:16.190 Start view internal-in ./RSASHA256/20326 ; managed ./RSASHA256/19036 ; managed dlv.isc.org/RSASHA1/19297 ; managed Start view external-in ./RSASHA256/20326 ; managed ./RSASHA256/19036 ; managed dlv.isc.org/RSASHA1/19297 ; managed Start view external-chaos dumpsecroots failed: not found I did not fully try Carl's input below but I believe it would have worked as well. I had performed a "chmod 770 /var/named" but I did not follow it up with the SELinux modification. The last error I had was SELinux barking so I'd anticipate his suggestion was the correct one. Does the 'named' user have write access to /var/named? The default redhat setup has /var/named as 0750, with /var/named/data as 0770. Also, the default redhat selinux config prevents named writing to /var/named. chmod 770 /var/named setsebool -P named_write_master_zones=true rndc secroots Thanks everyone for assisting with this matter.
