Exact RSBAC syslog entries would be useful here. Probably the font server xfs wants to setuid and simply lacks a capability for this uid. You will find the missing uid in the log (attr owner, attr_val uid), and can then add the cap with auth_set_cap FILE add <path-to-file> <uid> Amon. - To unsubscribe from the rsbac list, send a mail to majordomo@rsbac.org with unsubscribe rsbac as single line in the body.
