Services do not SEE my old Hard Drive


Hi there, I've just finished installing FC5 onto my new server, and now I've put my drive out of my old server and put it into my new one, mounted it and added it to fstab. But I've run into a strange problem...

I can access my files via the Shell and via Konqueror but for some odd reason, not even the directory that the drive is mounted on shows via FTP, WWW or Samba... even stranger is, if you move a file out of the "invisible" drive onto the root partition somewhere say in like a User's home dir, the file is still invisible, even though it is clearly there.

Clearly Confused

What does ls -lZ <invisable file after move> tell you? You may need to modify your SELinux rules to alow access to a foreign "root."
