Thanks for the response!  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.

Kind regards,
Dan
