Hi everybody,
I have a problem with OpenVPN in Fedora 23. When I try to connect to a VPN using the crt located in the same folder as the params, it fails with a no such file error. If I use the NetworkManager (in XFCE), it doesn't work too. I think it could be a SELinux problem (maybe its denying access to openvpn) but I couldn't find any infos about how to fix it. If I am using openvpn and am located in the same folder as the vpn, I have no problems. I already filled a bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1248252).
Please help me :(
Thanks!

Oh, anyway....
You don't say what folder you have it in.... One best practice is to place your openVPN stuff in ~/.cert which will give you the correct selinux contexts.
That was a nice tip Ed, thanks. As someone relatively new to SELinux, could you point me please to a resource listing all default SELinux contexts?

Welcome. I discovered that the hard way a few years ago. Memory still works. :-)

There may be a GUI for this but can't recall at the moment (hmmm...memory not so good after all)
But you can find the "default" contexts for user home directories under /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files

Hehe, sounds like an old tune to me.

Perfect, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Good night- Martín
