Is /.autolabel a program? A file? I did a search on Red Hat Support site and found nothing. I assume you want me to create a file (.autolabel) in the / directory. But this does nothing on my system. If you need more info, just ask what you need. Thanks in advance.

I would like to preface this with "I am not new to linux, but new to SE-Linux." I am not sure where to begin with this problem. After a clean install of Fedore Core 3 (at least I thought clean), I tried to login in with a user account a few days later. This did not work, so I logged in as root to change my user's password.
- First, I tried changing the user's password with passwd. Although
the program seemed to accept the new password. I still was unable to login in afterwards.
- So I tried to manually change it within the /etc/passwd file.
Knowing that there was a shadow file, I deleted the encrypted password in shadow and the "x" in the /etc/password file. Then, I ran passwd, followed by pwconv. But still nothing.
- Finally, I tried to just use "su" command into my user's account
to no avail.
Now I am stuck. My understanding of SE is that you must match securities contents of the files, by using the -Z delimiter, which I did verify.
If someone could steer me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Thx, Paul
BTW, I did also try userdel/useradd with no success.

Is your system labeled? If not touch /.autorelabel, then reboot.
