Sadly that one got closed because the release was never updated to something newer than Fedora 22. I suspect it's still a problem. I'll make a note in that ticket but basically if you want to use tar for backups you have to somewhat abandon the concept of confining amanda since it's going to have to be able to read essentially any file on the file system. Personally I use xfsdump for my backups, but of course that runs into its own selinux issues. My reccommendation is to switch just the amanda domain to permissive: # semanage permissive -a amanda_t Then you can at least contain other things on your system. I imagine that properly fixing this would require some rather intrusive changes to the policy to (optionally, controlled by a boolean) allow amanda_t read access to pretty much every type. - J<
