Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web.

Executable types in .fc files should be marked with --.  It makes setfiles run 
faster and also avoids bad policy being written when the executable gets 
replaced with a symlink or something else strange happens.

Labelling a binary in /usr/sbin as bin_t makes no sense.

I don't think that there's any need for so many domains.

Also tripwire domains probably don't make any sense.  If you are serious about 
tripwire then you should boot from removable media to run it.  Anyone who can 
crack a SE Linux system can surely sort out the tripwire database.
