Last summer, I set up a network with about a dozen stationary boxes
and 15-20 moveable users. All users are authenticating via FreeIPA,
and have their home directories NFS-mounted from a central file
server. Both the desktop boxes and the file server were running
Fedora 16.
+ User home directories were mounted from "/srv/exports/<user_name>".
+ The desktop boxes had SE Linux boolean "use_nfs_home_dirs=1".
+ The file server had
"/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local" with:
/srv system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0
All was working well.
In March, I upgraded all of the desktop boxes, as well as the file
server and the FreeIPA server to Fedora 18.
+ User home directories are still mounted from
"/srv/exports/<user_name>".
+ The desktop boxes still have SE Linux boolean "use_nfs_home_dirs=1".
+ The file server still has
"/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local" with:
/srv system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0
The problems is that, as some users create files, they are being
created with context:
"system_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0"
rather than:
"unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0"
If I run "restorecon -FR /srv" , then the files are re-labelled to the
"unconfined_u".
I don't know how frequently files are created with the wrong context.
Any ideas as to what is happening?
Thanks.

where you can find answers. Basically "unconfined_u" tells you that
files have been created by a process running with "unconfined_u:*:*:*
context.
