Authorized keys database lookup SELinux failure
Summary
SELinux denies access to authorized_keys
when configured following docs at:
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/operations/speed_up_ssh.html
Steps to reproduce
- Make sure SELinux is enabled with setenforce 1.
- Follow steps in https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/operations/speed_up_ssh.html
- Add new public key under user settings
- Try to log in - will be prompted for password.
- Check /var/log/secure, will see the SSH AuthorizedKeysCommand error.
- Can find denial under /var/log/audit/audit.log, see output below.
What is the current bug behavior?
SSH prompts for password
What is the expected correct behavior?
Passwordless login

Possible fixes
Not sure whether this should be a documentation update at https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/operations/speed_up_ssh.html or whether it should be correctly labeled during reconfigure of Omnibus.
