Subject: nfs client uses different MAC policy or model
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2024 23:49:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZfONIThp2RIfmu1O@goliath> (raw)


Hi,

It seems there is/was a problem using NFS security labels where the server and client use
different MAC policy or model. 

I was reading this page,

http://www.selinuxproject.org/page/Labeled_NFS/TODO#Label_Translation_Framework

It seems like this problem was known in 2009 when this page was written. Is
there a way to accomplish having extended attributes shared over NFS to a client
with different selinux policies ?

Maybe it's possible to allow the client to write local file context without
writing that down to the remote filesystem.

Thanks,
Daniel
