Linux - CentOS6 - semanage - command not found

  • 772

I am trying to solve an issue where my HTTPD is denied access to binding custom ports and I believe it has to do with SELinux. Whilst doing some googling I came across some posts where users were typing semanage followed with flags and commands to view certain data. In following these posts I too typed in semanage, but it's not on my system.

Results of yum list *semanage*:

  libsemanage-static.x86_64 | 2.0.43-4.el6 | base

Is the binary available in one of these other packages?

centos selinux centos6

    The script is in the policycoreutils-python:

    [root@kerberos home]# rpm -qf /usr/sbin/semanage
policycoreutils-python-2.0.83-19.8.el6_0.x86_64

    Installing via yum will give you the following:
