Hi,
Not sure if even this is were I should post so forgive the mis-posting.
I did a search for selinux help and this is were I got.
I'm running RHEL 5 and am having SE linux issues even though I have SE
Linux disabled.
I have basic support and they really are of no help on this matter.
My scenario;
RHEL 5 NFS server (although it can be a Centos NFS server or even a
BlueArc).
Centos 5 NFS client.
Dump/Restore.
From my NFS client I do;
dump -f - / | restore -r -r -
I can get screen loads of stuff like;
restore: ./etc/ysyconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0: EA set
security.selinux:system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0 failed: Operation not
supported.
This happens on various files in various folders.
The dump/restore does complete and the files do get restored.
lsattr shows nothing set on the source files and when doing it on the
NFS share, I get;
lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on .... (this
is various dirs).
Any clues are appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
- Brian

Looks like restore is trying to maintain the xattrs of a previous
selinux label, when the kernel sees the xattr it refuses to assign it on
an NFS share since NFS does not support xattrs.
