NAME

6       postfix_map_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy for the post‐
7       fix_map processes
8

DESCRIPTION

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

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The   postfix_map_t   SELinux   type  can  be  entered  via  the  post‐
25       fix_map_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the postfix_map_t domain are the  fol‐
28       lowing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/postmap
31

PROCESS TYPES

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

51

BOOLEANS

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

MANAGED FILES

75       The SELinux process type postfix_map_t can manage  files  labeled  with
76       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
77       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
78       missions.
79
80       krb5_host_rcache_t
81
82            /var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
83            /var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
84            /var/tmp/nfs_0
85            /var/tmp/DNS_25
86            /var/tmp/host_0
87            /var/tmp/imap_0
88            /var/tmp/HTTP_23
89            /var/tmp/HTTP_48
90            /var/tmp/ldap_55
91            /var/tmp/ldap_487
92            /var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
93
94       mailman_data_t
95
96            /etc/mailman.*
97            /var/lib/mailman(/.*)?
98            /var/spool/mailman.*
99
100       postfix_etc_t
101
102            /etc/postfix.*

FILE CONTEXTS

109       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
110       type.
111
112       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
113
114       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
115       SELinux  postfix_map  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup
116       their postfix_map processes in as secure a method as possible.
117
118       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
119
120       SELinux defines the file context types  for  the  postfix_map,  if  you
121       wanted  to  store files with these types in a different paths, you need
122       to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and  then
123       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
124
125       semanage   fcontext  -a  -t  postfix_map_exec_t  '/srv/postfix_map/con‐
126       tent(/.*)?'
127       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypostfix_map_content
128
129       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
130       match multiple files.
131
132       The following file types are defined for postfix_map:
133
134
135
136       postfix_map_exec_t
137
138       - Set files with the postfix_map_exec_t type, if you want to transition
139       an executable to the postfix_map_t domain.
140
141
142
143       postfix_map_tmp_t
144
145       - Set files with the postfix_map_tmp_t type, if you want to store post‐
146       fix map temporary files in the /tmp directories.
147
148
149
150       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
151       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
152       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
153       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
154
155

COMMANDS

157       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
158       mappings.
159
160       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
161       process type is permissive.
162
163       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
164       icy modules.
165
166       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
167
168
169       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
170       icy settings.
