+  How do I know which file context rule is used for a particular file?

+<body>
+
+<p>
+If you use the <c>matchpathcon</c> command, it will tell you what the security
+context for the given path (file or directory) should be, but it doesn't tell
+you which rule it used to deduce this. To do that, you can use <c>findcon</c>:
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Using findcon">
+~# <i>findcon /etc/selinux/strict/contexts/files/file_contexts -p /lib64/rc/init.d</i>
+/.*                          system_u:object_r:default_t
+/lib(64)?/rc/init\.d(/.*)?   system_u:object_r:initrc_state_t
+/lib64/.*                    system_u:object_r:lib_t
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+When the SELinux utilities try to apply a context, they try to match the rule
+that is the most specific, so in the above case, it is the one that leads to the
+initrc_state_t context.
