You can check the labels using seinfo -t, below is what I had for samba

   samba_etc_t
   samba_initrc_exec_t
   samba_log_t
   samba_net_exec_t
   samba_net_t
   samba_net_tmp_t
   samba_secrets_t
   samba_share_t
   samba_spool_t
   samba_unconfined_net_t
   samba_unconfined_script_exec_t
   samba_unconfined_script_t
   samba_unit_file_t
   samba_var_t
   sambagui_exec_t
   sambagui_t

I tried a few boxes and I don't get that error
