How do I allow tftpd to write files? I changed the context to
"system_u:object_r:public_content_rw_t:s0" but that doesn't work.
Also I'm using /var/tftp instead of /tftpboot, and there doesn't seem
to be any file_contexts set up for /var/tftp. I manually set the
context to match that of /tftpboot:
drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:tftpdir_t /tftpboot//
drwxrwsr-x tftp tftp system_u:object_r:tftpdir_t /var/tftp/

I did not even know you
could updload with tftp.
Is this common? I would think this is dangerous and insecure, but with
SELinux you could make it a little more secure.
tftp can only read public_content policy
So we have three options.
1 Use audit2allow to generate policy to allow tftp to write to the
files/directory you want.
2. convince me or upstream that tftp should be able to write to
public_content_rw_t.
BTW, I was at WPI this past Tuesday at the Robot Symposium. It was
quite good.
