@jaredbusch does
sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.logtell you anything? -
That it is blocking access to the

Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.

Have not see that issue but I'm also using mongodb that is available from Fedora instead.
/var/lib/mongo/doesn't exist for me. But/var/lib/mongodbdoes exist. I also do have local.ns too. -

FFS @jaredbusch pay attention to what you are doing. don't use old versions.

Summary here is I used Mongo 2.4 or something. wasn't paying attention to what I was doing.
On current 3.4, it has no issues.
