Indeed.  I had that impression for quite a while.

That indeed changes 'semanage login -l' output to

Login Name                SELinux User              MLS/MCS Range            

__default__               unconfined_u              s0-s0:c0.c1023           
root                      unconfined_u              s0-s0:c0.c1023           
system_u                  system_u                  s0-s0:c0.c1023

but it does not help that much.  I still get "Unable to get valid
context for root" from a login and 'system_u:system_r:system_crond_t:s0'
for 'id -Z'.  BTW - that does not generate any audit messages; only
"error: ssh_selinux_setup_pty: security_compute_relabel: Invalid
argument", and related, in /var/log/secure.

I told you this is weird.  All of that after an upgrade from F8 to
F10.  I really would like to know why as surely this is not a result
of me trying hard to mess things up.

That machine was rebooted a number of times and nothing changes.
I cannot switch to 'enforcing' as the box is "remote" and most
likely that would immediately cut me off.  Before an upgrade this
was 'targeted' and 'enforcing'.  As I wrote before: after an upgrade
I had to force relabelling on a reboot as otherwise most anything
was only spitting on me.

BTW - I did some hacking and I do not see at this moment any "avc"
type failure notificiations in /var/log/messages.  Only right now
the box is rather quiet.  I am not sure what will happen when
regular users will show up.
