Although I feel a bit creepy about disabling security in order to get something working. Kind of like leaving one particular door unlocked so the janitor can get in... I jacked around with the file security contexts with no luck. I hold onto the hope that this can be made to work: SELinux and postgresql living in harmony. Does anyone have a pointer to a crash course in configuring SELinux security contexts? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
