NAME

6       nslcd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nslcd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nslcd processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The nslcd processes execute with the  nslcd_t  SELinux  type.  You  can
13       check  if  you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14       with the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep nslcd_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The nslcd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nslcd_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the nslcd_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/sbin/nslcd
28

PROCESS TYPES

30       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31       system
32
33       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
36       nslcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nslcd  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for nslcd:
40
41       nslcd_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a nslcd_t can be used to make the process
44       type nslcd_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.
47
48

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.   nslcd
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run nslcd with the tightest access possible.

MANAGED FILES

167       The SELinux process type nslcd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
168       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
169       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

212       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
213       type.
214
215       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
216
217       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
218       SELinux nslcd policy is very flexible allowing  users  to  setup  their
219       nslcd processes in as secure a method as possible.
220
221       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
222
223       SELinux  defines the file context types for the nslcd, if you wanted to
224       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
225       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
226       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
227
228       semanage fcontext -a -t nslcd_var_run_t '/srv/mynslcd_content(/.*)?'
229       restorecon -R -v /srv/mynslcd_content
230
231       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
232       match multiple files.
233
234       The following file types are defined for nslcd:
235
236
237
238       nslcd_conf_t
239
240       -  Set files with the nslcd_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files
241       as nslcd configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
242
243
244
245       nslcd_exec_t
246
247       - Set files with the nslcd_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition  an
248       executable to the nslcd_t domain.
249
250
251
252       nslcd_initrc_exec_t
253
254       -  Set  files with the nslcd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
255       tion an executable to the nslcd_initrc_t domain.
256
257
258
259       nslcd_var_run_t
260
261       - Set files with the nslcd_var_run_t type, if you  want  to  store  the
262       nslcd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
263
264
265
266       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
267       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
268       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
269       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
270
271

COMMANDS

273       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
274       mappings.
275
276       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
277       process type is permissive.
278
279       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
280       icy modules.
281
282       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
283
284
285       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
286       icy settings.
