I was hoping for something more similar to mod_privileges, where each virtual host is running in a separate selinux domain. That would be very usefull for ISP's offering virtual hostings to customers, and give the possibility of giving guest_t shell access to multiple users with unique namespaces. It might not be necessary to run everything within the same apache process, maybe launch one per virtual host would be OK. But full mod_privileges-like support would be perfect. Has anybody tackled something like that with selinux ? -jf
