Wiaht is this httpd_user_content_t?
That is an selinux context which httpd is allowed to access. It is defined as the label for files matching the regex /home/[^/]*/((www)|(web)|(public_html))(/.+)? in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/
"restorecon" can be used to reset contexts to those defined in that directory.
Why on files I create on this system and not those I cp from a USB drive?
Because you used cp -a, which preserves permissions and labels, among other attributes. Normally, files inherit a context from their parent directory.
Ah yes. I was lazy, as 'all' I really wanted was to maintain timestamps on those files. Serves me right...
thanks for the explaination.
New server is more solid than current, so I am going to launch it tomorrow. Then on to BIND testing.
