Bug#658675: /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: selinux contexts as in/for compatibility with RHEL/Fedora
Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:5.9p1-2em1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id
if you use ssh-copy-id targeting a default Centos install, you cannot
immediately log in with public key
authentication because of selinux context issues.
This is documented in the Centos release notes here:
http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS6.2#head-652041430eedc0752937ec8252c52132e574fd2a
and it is noted that the Centos version of ssh-copy-id is patched to not fail
due to this additional hurdle.
debian's ssh-copy-id should be aware of this type of problem whether on a
selinux debian machine (non-default) or
on default fedora/centos/RHEL installs.
Thx
Shawn Landden
