Note for a backport that these are findable in FC3 with grep "^type .*configurable" policy.conf | cut -d',' -f1 | cut -d' ' -f2 for a rawhide policy or latest shipping. Will be in fc4 as /etc/selinux/policyname/configurable_contexts.
Reassigning to new FAQ maintainer.
Just evaluate if this information needs to be in the new FAQ, thanks.
Not sure what configurable_contexts were. Maybe you mean customizable_types, which are stored in /etc/selinux/policyname/contexts/customizable_types? Was someone asking where these were stored?
I completely do not recall the details. I got a pointer or reference from one of the Red Hat SELinux team, either in IRC or via mailing list, and put that there as a note to research further and make it an FAQ reference. Ah, OK, I found the IRC conversation with Dan Walsh. I'll create an attachment of the relevant parts.
Created attachment 128069 [details] IRC log where dwalsh and quaid discuss configurable contexts; walters lends some voice as well dwalsh == dan walsh quaid == karsten wade walters == colin walters Over a two day period in January 2005.
The conversation continued on list, link here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=110540333200002&r=1&w=2 The consensus was to call these customizable types in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/customizable_types instead of configurable or the other options. I'll add a FAQ for customizable_types
Addressed in CVS
