NAME

6       smbcontrol_selinux  - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the smbcontrol
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the smbcontrol processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  smbcontrol  processes  execute with the smbcontrol_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 smbcontrol_t

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  smbcontrol_t SELinux type can be entered via the smbcontrol_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the smbcontrol_t domain are  the  fol‐
28       lowing:
29
30       /usr/bin/smbcontrol
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       smbcontrol  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their smb‐
40       control processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for smbcontrol:
43
44       smbcontrol_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a smbcontrol_t  can  be  used  to  make  the
47       process  type  smbcontrol_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.  smbcon‐
54       trol policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that  allow
55       you  to  manipulate the policy and run smbcontrol with the tightest ac‐
56       cess 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

MANAGED FILES

68       The SELinux process type smbcontrol_t can manage files labeled with the
69       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
70       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
71
72       samba_var_t
73
74            /var/nmbd(/.*)?
75            /var/lib/samba(/.*)?
76            /var/cache/samba(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

80       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
81       type.
82
83       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
84
85       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
86       SELinux  smbcontrol  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup
87       their smbcontrol processes in as secure a method as possible.
88
89       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
90
91       SELinux defines the file context  types  for  the  smbcontrol,  if  you
92       wanted  to  store files with these types in a different paths, you need
93       to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and  then
94       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
95
96       semanage   fcontext   -a   -t  smbcontrol_exec_t  '/srv/smbcontrol/con‐
97       tent(/.*)?'
98       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysmbcontrol_content
99
100       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
101       match multiple files.
102
103       The following file types are defined for smbcontrol:
104
105
106
107       smbcontrol_exec_t
108
109       -  Set files with the smbcontrol_exec_t type, if you want to transition
110       an executable to the smbcontrol_t domain.
111
112
113
114       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
115       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
116       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
117       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS

121       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
122       mappings.
123
124       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
125       process type is permissive.
126
127       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
128       icy modules.
129
130       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
131
132
133       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
134       icy settings.
