17       out  requiring  modification  to  or recompilation from policy sources.

EXAMPLE

71       List SELinux users
72       # semanage user -l
73       Modify groups for staff_u user
74       # semanage user -m -R "system_r unconfined_r staff_r" staff_u
75       Add level for TopSecret Users
76       # semanage user -a -R "staff_r" -rs0-TopSecret topsecret_u

NOTES

80       SELinux  users  defined  in  the  policy  cannot be removed or directly
81       altered. When the -m switch is used on such a user, semanage creates  a
82       local  SELinux  user  of  the  same  name, which overrides the original
83       SELinux user.
84
85       As long as a login entry exists that links  local  SELinux  user  to  a
86       Linux user, given local SELinux user cannot be removed (even if it rep‐
87       resents local modification of a SELinux user defined  in  policy).   In
88       case  you want to remove local modification of a SELinux user, you need
89       to remove any related login mapping first. Follow these steps:
90
91              1) Remove all login entries concerning the SELinux user.
92                 To list local customizations of login entries execute:
93                 # semanage login -l -C
94                 or for semanage command form:
95                 # semanage login --extract
96              2) Remove the SELinux user
97              3) Optionally reintroduce removed login entries
