Ok, basically you can add a transition rule for "/home/cnd/mod1" userdom_user_home_dir_filetrans(unconfined_t, ABC_t, dir) It will create a dir in /home/cnd with ABC_t labeling for unconfined_t or for a domain defined by you. Where you are not able to use a file transition, you can use restorecond on RHEL6. It uses inotify to watch files listed in /etc/selinux/restorecond.conf /etc/selinux/restorecond_user.conf when they are created and it sets a context defined in the policy. -- Miroslav Grepl Software Engineering, SELinux Solutions Red Hat, Inc. -- selinux mailing list selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/selinux
