Hello,

 

I'm trying to use openvpn on a Fedora Live CD built using livecd-creator.  I'd like to have openvpn grab the required certificates and keys from somewhere other than /etc/openvpn - specifically a directory under /mnt/live.  However, on configuring such a VPN connection, when trying to actually connect to it, SELinux balks, returning the following error:

 

SELinux is preventing openvpn (openvpn_t) "search" to ./mnt (mnt_t).

 

What can I do within SELinux to allow openvpn to access an external file system?  Is there a specific policy change that I can make to allow this type of access?

 

Thanks for any help that can be offered.  If you need any more information, please let me know.
