NAME

6       tmpreaper_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced Linux Policy for the tmpreaper
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the tmpreaper  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  tmpreaper processes execute with the tmpreaper_t SELinux type. You
14       can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps  com‐
15       mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep tmpreaper_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  tmpreaper_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the tmpreaper_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the tmpreaper_t domain are the follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/tmpwatch,   /usr/sbin/tmpreaper,   /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountall-
31       bootclean.sh, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountnfs-bootclean.sh
32

PROCESS TYPES

34       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35       system
36
37       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
40       tmpreaper policy  is  very  flexible  allowing  users  to  setup  their
41       tmpreaper processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for tmpreaper:
44
45       tmpreaper_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  tmpreaper_t  can  be  used to make the
48       process type tmpreaper_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to
49       permissive  process  types,  but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50       still generated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux  policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access   required.
55       tmpreaper  policy  is  extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56       allow you to manipulate the policy and run tmpreaper with the  tightest
57       access possible.
58
59
60
61       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
69       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
70
71       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
72

74

MANAGED FILES

76       The  SELinux process type tmpreaper_t can manage files labeled with the
77       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
78       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
79
80       antivirus_db_t
81
82            /var/amavis(/.*)?
83            /var/clamav(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

117       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
118       type.
119
120       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
121
122       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
123       SELinux tmpreaper policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
124       tmpreaper processes in as secure a method as possible.
125
126       The following file types are defined for tmpreaper:
127
128
129
130       tmpreaper_exec_t
131
132       - Set files with the tmpreaper_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition
133       an executable to the tmpreaper_t domain.
134
135
136       Paths:
137            /usr/sbin/tmpwatch,   /usr/sbin/tmpreaper,  /etc/rc.d/init.d/moun‐
138            tall-bootclean.sh, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountnfs-bootclean.sh
139
140
141       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
142       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
143       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
144       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
145
146

COMMANDS

148       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
149       mappings.
150
151       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
152       process type is permissive.
153
154       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
155       icy modules.
156
157       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
158
159
160       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
161       icy settings.
