#2389 new enhancement

mount.vboxfs does not allow context= option — at Initial Version

Description

Mounting a shared folder in a Fedora 9 linux guest, I receive SELinux denials when I try to copy files into the shared folder. I received advice to attempt the mount using a context= option: mount -o context="system_u:object_r:vmblock:s0" -t vboxsf VMShared /mnt but this doesn't work because apparently mount.vboxfs does not understand this option: unknown mount option `context="system_u:object_r:vmblock:s0"' valid options:

rw mount read write (default) ro mount read only uid =<arg> default file owner user id gid =<arg> default file owner group id ttl =<arg> time to live for dentry iocharset =<arg> i/o charset (default utf8) convertcp =<arg> convert share name from given charset to utf8 dmode =<arg> mode of all directories fmode =<arg> mode of all regular files umask =<arg> umask of directories and regular files dmask =<arg> umask of directories fmask =<arg> umask of regular files

According to the mount manpage, the context= option should be supported on all filesystems... So I guess this ticket is an RFE.

Cheers,

Christian
