Yes, I did that for [home] but the problem is what to do with: /var/www There are many different contexts for this directory and all the files under it and I was not sure how to make this directory a samba share without blowing away the original context in fear of breaking it all to bits. I want to keep all the original context AND add samba share context OR the public_share_rw_t as Stephen Smalley recommended but I was not sure how to do that. This is the question I asked of Mr Smalley and I am waiting to hear of his response.
