New user

[Anthony Pitt]

Hi there,
	I hope you can help. I've just installed 'Fedora COre2', with Selinux  
enabled.
Using 'seuser' I created a new 'defined' selinux user, with user_r role  
only. I also created the users /home/* directory under the same process.  
I'm using the 'gnome' window manager interface.
Now when I try to log on with this new user, I get all sorts of errors to  
do with the users environment, eventually allowing me a blank interface,  
with 'right-click' functionality only.
Any ideas?
Tony.

You are further along ..

I get

  [root@hoho2 user1]# date
  Mon May 24 13:16:52 CDT 2004
  [root@hoho2 user1]# seuser show users
  Could not open policy.conf file
  [root@hoho2 user1]#

I have FC2 installed clean with all updates (incl development) to this
moment (except for ppp - which is having a problem independent of selinux).

Booting with kernel boot parame 'selinux=1 enforcing=0' (not enforce=0..)
The boot was done just after a run of '/sbin/fixfiles relabel' at init level 1.

This sounds like your home directory is not labeled correctly, probably as a
result of seuser not running properly. See my other message in this thread
about how to fix seuser and let me know if that fixes your problems.
