I am setting up an FC4 samba server and can't get my shares accessed. With selinux off samba works normally. I have created a dir: drwxrwsrwx root root system_u:object_r:samba_share_t /data/public The is the error I get: type=AVC msg=audit(1140923608.645:86): avc: denied { search } for pid=3338 comm="smbd" name="/" dev=hda5 ino=2 scontext=root:system_r:smbd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:default_t tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1140923608.645:86): arch=40000003 syscall=195 success=no exit=-13 a0=88b85f8 a1=bff9aec4 a2=7fbff4 a3=bff9aec4 items=1 pid=3338 auid=500 uid=502 gid=0 euid=502 suid=0 fsuid=502 egid=100 sgid=100 fsgid=100 comm="smbd" exe="/usr/sbin/smbd" type=CWD msg=audit(1140923608.645:86): cwd="/" type=PATH msg=audit(1140923608.645:86): item=0 name="/data/public" flags=1 inode=2 dev=03:05 mode=040755 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 why does smbd_t want access to default_t when the dir is labeled samba_share_t? Does smbd_t have access to samba_share_t by default? Any advise, --Louis -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
