[Bug 776945] Re: Apparmor results in denying operation mknod for isc-dhcp-server

[koolhead17]

Hi Jamie,
Apology but i think this is not a bug, as i reported earlier.

The dhcpd.conf is being written by cobbler and that is why i was getting the Apparmor error. 
Maybe we need to write a policy in Apparmor to allow the writing of /etc/cobbler/dhcp.template  to /etc/dhcpd.conf :)

Title:
  Apparmor results in denying operation mknod for isc-dhcp-server

Status in “isc-dhcp” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: isc-dhcp-server

  I have isc-dhcp-server installed , i have configured  the needed
  /etc/dhcpd.conf file but when i try to execute

  #dhcpd

  it results in 
  can`t create PID file /var/run/dhcpd.pid :Permission denied.

  My syslog suggests me apparmor is denying the operation.

  #tail -f /var/log/syslog
