-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello and thank you for the reply. The problem here is that we also work with older systems (FC5) which do not have MCS implemented and cause compatibility problems when saving configuration file contexts. Migrating to a newer version is planned, but it will take a long while. In the meanwhile we need an intermediate solution. In RHEL 5.1/5.2 is where I see the ':s0' tag when I do ls -Z. Any clues about that?
