I changed my fstab to 

/dev/hda7 /mnt/daten vfat
rw,utf8,showexec,uid=500,gid=500,fmask=113,dmask=002,fscontext=system_u:object_r:samba_share_t 0 0

but samba access still was denied:

type=AVC msg=audit(1124469125.186:5348079): avc:  denied  { search } for
pid=4393 comm="smbd" name=mnt dev=hda3 ino=3335809
scontext=system_u:system_r:smbd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:mnt_t
tclass=dir

so I had to 

# chcon -t samba_share_t /mnt/

but I wonder if changing the context of the whole /mnt directory is a
good solution.
