snovakov, sorry you couldn't view the live stream. Is it UStream that your employer blocks?

 

 

As for your question, the problem is that the iControl Portal is running under the file system protection of selinux that controls file access to various processes. We have an inclusion list for the iControl Portal but it seems the /defaults and /usr/share/monitors directories aren't in the access list for that process.

I'll forward to PD for more feedback...
