Description of problem:  SELinux is preventing httpd from autofs mounting files system.  Without SELinux enabled the httpd mount of NFS resources work as expected and works as expected if mount is done manually (with 'cd' into /net/server...)  Home dir NFS resources from same server works with and without SELinux enabled.

# getsebool use_nfs_home_dirs
use_nfs_home_dirs --> on
 
# getsebool httpd_use_nfs
httpd_use_nfs --> on

# grep DocumentRoot /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
DocumentRoot /net/shadow/export/iraid/website/client-site

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always with SELINUX=enforcing

Apache/autofs configuration works and has been tested with SELINUX=permissive with no issues and as expected.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. disable selinux, reboot

2. config apache and autofs for /net/shadow/... resources then verify OK

3. enable selinux, reboot

2. mount | grep website
  ...nothing mounted as it should be

2.  service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 295 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
DocumentRoot must be a directory
                                                           [FAILED]
3.  cd /net/shadow/export/iraid/website/

4. mount | grep website
shadow:/export/iraid/website on /net/shadow/export/iraid/website type nfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,intr,sloppy,vers=4,addr=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,clientaddr=XXX.XX.XXX.XXX)

5. service httpd start
Starting httpd: 

6. service httpd status
httpd (pid  3474) is running...
