Hi, I'm not well versed in selinux and I rarely have run into issues with it. However, one point that I thought was true doesn't seem to be true. I was under the impression that when a file is created and the context for it is defined in the policy it would acquire it. For example, [egreshko@meimei ~]$ pwd /home/egreshko [egreshko@meimei ~]$ touch .fetchmailrc [egreshko@meimei ~]$ ls -Z .fetchmailrc unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 .fetchmailrc [egreshko@meimei ~]$ restorecon .fetchmailrc [egreshko@meimei ~]$ ls -Z .fetchmailrc unconfined_u:object_r:fetchmail_home_t:s0 .fetchmailrc Shouldn't the context have been correct when the file was created? How is an average user to know they may need to add the additional step.
