What is / labeled? In order for smbd to even get to /data/samba it has to be able to search on / and /data. Check out 'ls -Zd /' and 'ls - Zd /data' and make sure they are of types smbd can search. My first guess is that / is labeled wrong (I think it sholud be system_u:object_r:root_t) -Eric On Sat, 2006-02-25 at 23:04 -0500, Louis E Garcia II wrote: > 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 -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
