Hello, Tried that as well, I am using ~/selinux/local After the change by chcon # ls -Z ~/selinux drwxr-xr-x root root user_u:object_r:usr_t local # ls -Z ~/selinux/local -rw-r--r-- root root user_u:object_r:usr_t local.mod -rw-r--r-- root root user_u:object_r:usr_t local.pp -rw-r--r-- root root user_u:object_r:usr_t local.te # semodule -i local.pp libsemanage.semanage_commit_sandbox: Could not remove previous backup /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/previous. In fact I have now solved the issue. It involves enabling the boolean as you suggested before : # setsebool -P ftp_home_dir 1 # setsebool -P ftpd_is_daemon 1 Plus, changing the corresponding user home directory ACL to be less restrictive than 0700 -> 0755 ( thanks to Thomas Bleher for the hint ) -- Best regards, Ketut Mahaindra (Ito) "The race for perfection has no finish line" -----Original Message----- From: Paul Howarth Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 2:53 PM To: Ketut Mahaindra Cc: fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Allowing vsftpd access for user's home directory On Thu, 2006-05-11 at 14:32 +0800, Ketut Mahaindra wrote: > Hello, > > I tried your suggestion in conjunction with the FC5 SELinux FAQ: > http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2958106 > > So, I did the following > # audit2allow -m local -l -i /var/log/audit/audit.log > > Which give me something like: > > module local 1.0; > require { > class capability { dac_override dac_read_search }; > > type ftpd_t; > }; > allow ftpd_t self:capability { dac_override dac_read_search }; > > So, naturally I want it to be inside a file for compilation. > Then I did: > > # audit2allow -m local -l -i /var/log/audit/audit.log > local.te > # checkmodule -M -m -o local.mod local.te > # semodule_package -o local.pp -m local.mod > # semodule -i local.pp > > But, on that last step I get an error message "semodule: Could not read > file 'local.pp':" > It's strange, because the file local.pp is created normally by the > semodule_package command. > > Did I miss anything? Try this: Move the files you've used for this process (the .te/.pp files etc.) to a new, empty directory (I used /root/selinux.local) and change to that directory. Then do: # chcon -Rh -t usr_t . Then try the semanage command again. Paul. -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
