vsftpd using mysql

[Maria Iano]

Thank you so much Dominick - sesearch is a fantastic tool! It tells me  
exactly which booleans will do what I need. Either one of two booleans  
will provide two of the things I need. So there is only one extra  
allow rule that I need to create.

# sesearch --allow -s ftpd_t -t mysqld_var_run_t -c sock_file -p write  
-C
Found 2 av rules:
DT allow ftpd_t mysqld_var_run_t : sock_file { ioctl read write create  
getattr setattr lock append unlink link rename };  
[ allow_ftpd_full_access ]
DT allow ftpd_t mysqld_var_run_t : sock_file { ioctl read write create  
getattr setattr lock append unlink link rename }; [ ftp_home_dir ]

# sesearch --allow -s ftpd_t -t mysqld_db_t -c dir -p search -C
Found 2 av rules:
DT allow ftpd_t mysqld_db_t : dir { ioctl read write create getattr  
setattr lock unlink link rename add_name remove_name reparent search  
rmdir }; [ allow_ftpd_full_access ]
DT allow ftpd_t mysqld_db_t : dir { ioctl read write create getattr  
setattr lock unlink link rename add_name remove_name reparent search  
rmdir }; [ ftp_home_dir ]

So I can get
allow ftpd_t mysqld_var_run_t:sock_file write;
and
allow ftpd_t mysqld_db_t:dir search;
with booleans.

The only one that I can't get that way is:
allow ftpd_t mysqld_t:unix_stream_socket connectto;

Thanks!
