You can copy instead of moving, that will cause the newly created file to inherit the target directory's security context. > I don't think it is reasonable to have to relabel > every time a file is moved around to work around possible problems with > SELinux.

If you upload to your home directory and then rename to the website directory (which seems rather odd to me), then yes, you will need to relabel. And normal users can do this, just run: chcon -t httpd_user_content_t filename > Hence I > believe even SELinux targeted should be off by default in FC3, You can disable SELinux protection just for Apache if you like, run system-config-securitylevel.
