Subject: Security contexts for the contexts directory?
Date: Thu, 27 May 2004 07:54:46 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40B5D706.2050902@redhat.com> (raw)

With the new design of the policy tree, we have moved the "contexts" 
files into
/etc/selinux/*/contexts/

These files include default_contexts, file_contexts, default_type, 
failsafe_contexts ...
as well as contexts for individual users like users/root.  Currently the 
security contexts for these files is etc_t.   Should we change them so 
something else? default_contexts_t?  Should file_contexts be marked 
differently then the others?

Also since policy is determined by /etc/sysconfig/selinux, should we set 
a special security context on it?  If we do should we move it to a 
directory where it would be easier to maintain the security context?  
Maybe rename it to /etc/selinux/config?

Dan
