Hello, Thanks a lot, that solves it! Of course prior to that I need to enable the corresponding boolean # setsebool -P ftp_home_dir 1 # setsebool -P ftpd_is_daemon 1 -- Best regards, Ketut Mahaindra (Ito) "The race for perfection has no finish line" -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Bleher Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 3:17 PM To: Ketut Mahaindra Cc: fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Allowing vsftpd access for user's home directory * Ketut Mahaindra <kmahaindra@xxxxxxxxxx> [2006-05-11 07:19]: > Hello all, > > I have installation of FC5. > I want to make vsftpd run with chroot environment of user home directory. > So far it does not work because SELinux prevents the vsftpd to access the > home directory. > > P.S. > - I have the following AVC error messages: > avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=9099 comm="vsftpd" capability=1 > scontext=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 > tclass=capability > avc: denied { dac_read_search } for pid=9099 comm="vsftpd" capability=2 > scontext=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:ftpd_t:s0 > tclass=capability This means that vsftpd can't access some files or directories because it does not have DAC rights on it.
