On my machine I have a symlink /home/nogin -> aleksey (this is useful because my home dir on work machines is /home/nogin and the symlink makes it easier to copy configs around). For some reason the setfiles does not realize that /home/nogin is in /home! It says: % /usr/sbin/setfiles -d /etc/security/selinux/file_contexts /home/nogin /usr/sbin/setfiles: read 1224 specifications /usr/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /home/nogin /usr/sbin/setfiles: /home/nogin matched by (/.*,system_u:object_r:file_t) /usr/sbin/setfiles: hash table stats: 1 elements, 1/65536 buckets used, longest chain length 1 /usr/sbin/setfiles: Done. And then I see avc: denied { read } for pid=2145 exe=/usr/lib/mozilla-1.7a/mozilla-bin name=nogin dev=hda2 ino=3777728 scontext=user_u:user_r:user_mozilla_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=lnk_file (Mozilla's prefs.js is useng /home/nogin instead of /home/aleksey to make it easier to copy setiings between work and home). I currently have policycoreutils-1.6-4 policy-1.7-8
