Under some circumstances, you might need to change the default
file type for a file system hierarchy. For example, you might
want to use a DocumentRoot directory other
than /var/www/html with
httpd.
To change the default file type of the directory hierarchy
/var/webcontent as
httpd_sys_content_t:
Use the semanage command to define the file type
httpd_sys_content_tfor the directory hierarchy:#
/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/var/webcontent(/.*)?"This command adds the following entry to the file
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local:/var/webcontent(/.*)? system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0
Use the restorecon command to apply the new file type to the entire directory hierarchy.
#
/sbin/restorecon -R -v /var/webcontent
