Hi again Daniel
Here is some more info on this problem - which may be significant...
After checking the link from my last email again I tried:
[root@C5 ~]# fixfiles relabel
Files in the /tmp directory may be labeled incorrectly, this command
can remove all files in /tmp. If you choose to remove files from /tmp,
a reboot will be required after completion.
Do you wish to clean out the /tmp directory [N]? y

Looks like there is a problem with the policy? Any suggestions how to
resolve this?

Thanks Daniel
I'm pretty sure you are right - that there is something wrong with the
labelling - but
touch /.autorelabel; reboot
Doesn't seem to cause the relabelling.
I was a bit suspicious that the relabelling didn't work the first time
- because I also did a touch /forcefsck at the boot when I was
expecting relabelling - and it seemed to do 3 fscks - but no obvious
relabelling. I assumed one of the fscks must have really been a
relabel - but maybe not.... Now wehn I do the touch and reboot - there
is no delay in the reboot messages on the system console.
I have found this thread - which seem to describe a similar lack of
relabelling - but doesn't offer a solution:

I haven't tried the 5.3 policy preview yet. Might that help me with
the relabelling?
Thanks again
Richard.
