Bug #1681: SELinux gets wrong seltype for NFS mounts
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1681

Author: freiheit
Status: Closed
Priority: Low
Assigned to: seanmil
Category: file
Target version: 0.24.7
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.24.6
Keywords: 


This is on a system with SELinux in permissive mode.

puppet code looks like:
file { "nfs/jeckle/mail_admin": ensure => directory }
mount { "/nfs/jeckle/mail_admin":
    atboot  => true,
    device  => "jeckle-nfs:/vol/vol_mail_admin/mail_admin",
    ensure  => "mounted",
    fstype  => "nfs",
    options => "vers=3,tcp,intr,hard",
    dump    => "0",
    pass    => "0",
    require => [ Host[jeckle-nfs], File["/nfs/jeckle/mail_admin"]],
}

This is on a system that already had that in place before upgrading to 0.24.6.  
I believe it's possible you'd receive a different result if the file {} 
resource was applied before the mount was mounted, but this system already had 
the mount going when puppet was run.

Error looks like this:
err: 
//Node[nelson]/courierimap/ssu::mailserver/virtmounts/File[/nfs/jeckle/mail_admin]/seltype:
 change from nfs_t to default_t failed: Execution of '/usr/bin/chcon -h -t 
default_t /nfs/jeckle/mail_admin' returned 1: /usr/bin/chcon: failed to change 
context of /nfs/jeckle/mail_admin to system_u:object_r:default_t: Operation not 
supported

And error keeps happening.

I believe the fundamental problem is that there are actually TWO 
/nfs/jeckle/mail_admin files.  One is the local directory which is what 
matchpathcon returns.  The second is the mount, which overlays and hides the 
original directory.  It's possible for the two to have different permissions, 
etc.

As far as I know, SELinux won't work on NFS mounts or anything on the NFS mount.
