There is an ordering/precedence among the different kinds of file contexts configurations, with the base file_contexts generated from the module .fc files at the lowest priority, the file_context.homedirs file generated by genhomedircon as the next priority, and the file_contexts.local file as the highest priority. So a module .fc file can be overridden by the genhomedircon-generated entries or by the local file contexts added via semanage fcontext -a. Sounds like you should be using semanage fcontext -a for this instead of a module. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
