SELinux Mailing ListRe: setting up new test user domain?

I hate to completely change the direction you're headed but... Based on what you've said earlier about what you want to accomplish, it seems a chroot jail is what you want for your users. Why reinvent the wheel? Of course you can beat SELinux into doing what you're asking, but that's not really what it was designed to directly accomplish. Largo, Florida, implemented a linux system for it's municipality workers to use. A base link off of which you might find lots of useful information is: http://www.consultingtimes.com/Largo.html He didn't do exactly what you're talking about, but it's not far off. Where I would actually start, is a site to help explain and set up a chroot jail, one of I'm sure many sites is: http://www.gsyc.inf.uc3m.es/~assman/jail/1.html I'm sure there are others out there. With a large enough hammer it is entirely possible to beat a square peg into a round hole, but it's much easier to just find the round peg. Hope this helps you accomplish your objectives.
