Hi,
We are testing the installation program for our software from CDROM
media. On RHEL4 it works fine. On RHEL5 beta 2, the installation
software fails to execute.
According to /etc/auto.misc the automounter will attempt to mount using
the following options:
-fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom
The CDROM properties show the file as not allowing the execution of any
program, and the SELinux context is iso9660_t.
/etc/mtab shows the CDROM as mounted with the noexec option.
/dev/hdc /media/CDROM iso9660 ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,uid=500 0 0
Where does the noexec option come from? I thought it might be SELinux,
but disabling SELinux, still leaves the CD automounted with the noexec
option.
The only other option I see is HAL (/usr/libexec/hal-storage-mount)
mounting the device with the noexec option, or have I missed something?
The current automount behaviour is rather strict, but quite possibly
valid for a server. Is this intended?
Scott
