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. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

SELinux and Big Brother: msg#00101

SELinux and Big Brother |
I just got Big Brother working on Fedora Core 4 with SELinux enabled.
The key steps:
1. With SELinux turned on, apache adamantly refuses to follow symbolic
links, even if FollowSymLinks is set in httpd.conf. (Is this a bug?) The
only workaround I've been able to find is a bind mount:
# mkdir /var/www/html/bb
# mount -o bind /home/bb/bb/www /var/www/html/bb
2. Change the context:
# chcon -R -h -t httpd_user_content_t /home/bb/bb/www
3. Change the two 'mv' commands in bb-display.sh to 'cp' commands so
that the contexts get preserved when the page is regenerated.
Of course in the above I'm assuming DocumentRoot in apache is set to
/var/www/html and that your Big Brother server files are in
/home/bb/bb. Change as appropriate for your setup.
