Revised the patch as follows: Bug description: db2bak.pl takes an option "-a backupdir", which is supposed to be generated by the server and used as a backup directory. But since the created directory inherits the parent's selinux context, it fails to store the backup files in the directory. Fix description: As the reporter agaviola suggested, it should be a good idea to add one more level to the archive directory. $archivedir = "${archivedir}/ID-${yr}_${mn}_${dy}_${h}_${m}_${s}"; But to keep the backward compatibility, introducing a new option "-A backupdir" and when "-A" is given, storing the backup files in the nested backup directory. If the option is "-a backupdir", the backup files are stored in the backupdir. Respecting the selinux policy, the server and its utilities are not supposed to create a file/directory where it is not allowed. This patch creates a symlink from the back up location to the specified path by a user. bak2db.pl follows the symlink and restore from the back up directory. -- 389-devel mailing list 389-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-devel
