Subject: ah ha, very funny: autofs causing grief on make relabel
Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2004 19:12:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040828181252.GE11546@lkcl.net> (raw)

a word of caution when using autofs: switch it off before doing a
make relabel.

i'm not sure what the long-term solution is but if you happen to
have messed up the autofs mount point's file context (in my case
/media was set to root_t) then it's not possible to relabel
the mount point whilst autofs is still running.

i had to switch off autofs (a task in itself which includes having
to manually run umount -lf /media) and _then_ i could relabel /media.

Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from
the same well: Love.  If you love yourself and everyone and everything
around you, funnily and coincidentally enough, life gets a lot better.
