Description Michal Trunecka 2013-06-07 10:29:45 UTC
The same issue on RHEL6:
selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-195.el6_4.6.noarch

(I guess we won't fix this on RHEL5. Let me know if I'm wrong, I'll file it for RHEL5 too)

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #971027 +++

Description of problem:
automount cannot mount into public_content_t, which fails with avc. Since ftpd can read/write to autofs_t and nfs_t using corresponding booleans, I would expect I can mount dirs into /var/ftp directory, which has public_content_t by default.
