Hi,
Could you explain me, please, the behavior of the restorecon utility.
I added the following in the local.fc file
# phpbb /var/www/phpbb/cache(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_rw_t,s0) /var/www/phpbb/files(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_rw_t,s0)
compiled and installed policy, seems to be in place.
# semanage fcontext -l|grep phpbb /var/www/phpbb/cache(/.*)? all files system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_rw_t:s0 /var/www/phpbb/files(/.*)? all files system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_rw_t:s0
But when now I run restorecon -vR /var/www/phpbb/ it doesn't do anything. I would expect it to changed context on two directories and files in them.
Only if I specify -F (force) I relabel everything. I can't quite grasp why sometimes I don't have to supply -F and sometimes I do.
Not completely sure but i think it may have to do with customizable types. Customizable types are types that should not be relabeled.
This can be overridden with the -F (force) option.
Again i am not quite sure if this is the case here because in my system the httpd_sys_content_t type is not added to the customizable_types files.
less /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/custom*
If i am wrong i hope someone will correct me.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours, Vadym Chepkov
