This brings me to a question. What do other folks do when running
rdist(1) (or similar) on a system that has selinux enabled? I just
succeeded in locking myself out of a remote system when it updated
*/.ssh/authorized_keys and the context was updated in a way that was
distasteful to selinux.
Looking at the rdist man page I see no indication that rdist understands
contexts and tries to preserve them. Is this true? Bug? RFE?
