SELinux issues with Samba


When Samba process try to access a file, SELinux denied the process to access the file. I wanted to set a file context label to the directory which the samba process needs to access and I tried to set it up permanently. But, I could not find /etc/selinux/POLICYTYPE/contexts/files/file_contexts.local file. Do you know where the file is?

POLICYTYPE should be replaced by the policy type I assume. Try targeted (ie /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts)
