to be leaving picture files all over their home folders, and laptops<br>
with no sense of year/month/day taken or what they are about.<br>
<br>
Looking to consolidate all the family pics in one location on a samba<br>
share on the primary workstation that happens to have 2TB of mirrored<br>
storage.<br>
<br>
This is all behind a firewall that blocks smb protocols in and out, and<br>
the iptables on the primary workstation will be set to only allow smb<br>
to/from specific family laptops.<br>
<br>
I have read the manuals...so I know one can get samba and selinux to<br>
dance together.<br>
<br>
But...I don't really want to set a boolean so that all the /home folders<br>
can be shared. Would rather create a separate folder and give it the<br>
correct selinux context, but there is a warning to be careful to not use<br>
a "system folder" because they already have the proper selinux contexts.<br>
<br>
So...if one were to create a new folder and share it out via samba,<br>
where would be the best location to create it so as to not conflict with<br>
the selinux contexts of the distro?<br>
<br>
/usr/share? /usr/local/share? /usr/mnt? somewhere in /var? or<br>
somewhere else?<br>
