Description Marko Myllynen 2011-12-21 08:40:48 UTC 
Description of problem:
After upgrading to RHEL 6.2 I started to see this issue on NFS mounted home:

$ sudo getenforce
Enforcing
$ ssh-keygen -l -f /home/testuser/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
/home/testuser/.ssh/id_dsa.pub: Permission denied
$ sudo setenforce 0
$ ssh-keygen -l -f /home/testuser/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
1024 .... /home/testuser/.ssh/id_dsa.pub (DSA)

While enforcing and running ssh-keygen nothing is being printed to /var/log/secure / /var/log/messages / /var/log/audit/audit.log. This used to work all ok on RHEL 6.0 / RHEL 6.1.
