Y'know, I know I'm asking for help, but I am so bloody frustrated that I want to give an example of why most admins I know *loathe* selinux. chcon doesn't last through reboots. Why? Or why have it? semanage doesn't offer the most obvious flag: -R, recurse. I've just restored a subversion repository from backup, after a drive failed. Now I'm trying to set the context. I'm trying to follow Dan's instructions in his blog <http://danwalsh.livejournal.com/28027.html?thread=197755> semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t 'mipav-svn/(*)' /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local: line 5 has invalid regex mipav-svn/(*): Invalid preceding regular expression Huh? Ditto without the parens. Nothing's changed. I went back and used chcon -R, which operates the way I expect a *Nix command to, so that selinux would shut up. But I want this permanent, so what's the magical incantation? Do I have the wrong keyboard? Or light a candle? mark -- selinux mailing list selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/selinux
