NAME

6       pingd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pingd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pingd processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The pingd processes execute with the  pingd_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 pingd_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The pingd_t SELinux type can be entered via the pingd_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the pingd_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/sbin/pingd
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       pingd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pingd  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for pingd:
40
41       ping_t, pingd_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a pingd_t can be used to make the process
44       type pingd_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.

BOOLEANS

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

PORT TYPES

150       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
151
152       You  can  see  the  types associated with a port by using the following
153       command:
154
155       semanage port -l
156
157
158       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  ports.
159       SELinux  pingd  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
160       pingd processes in as secure a method as possible.
161
162       The following port types are defined for pingd:
163
164
165       pingd_port_t
166
167
168
169       Default Defined Ports:
170                 tcp 9125
171

MANAGED FILES

173       The SELinux process type pingd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
174       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
175       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

236       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
237       type.
238
239       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
240
241       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
242       SELinux pingd policy is very flexible allowing  users  to  setup  their
243       pingd processes in as secure a method as possible.
244
245       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
246
247       SELinux  defines the file context types for the pingd, if you wanted to
248       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
249       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
250       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
251
252       semanage fcontext -a -t pingd_modules_t '/srv/mypingd_content(/.*)?'
253       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypingd_content
254
255       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
256       match multiple files.
257
258       The following file types are defined for pingd:
259
260
261
262       pingd_etc_t
263
264       - Set files with the pingd_etc_t type, if you want to store pingd files
265       in the /etc directories.
266
267
268
269       pingd_exec_t
270
271       - Set files with the pingd_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition  an
272       executable to the pingd_t domain.
273
274
275
276       pingd_initrc_exec_t
277
278       -  Set  files with the pingd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
279       tion an executable to the pingd_initrc_t domain.
280
281
282
283       pingd_modules_t
284
285       - Set files with the pingd_modules_t type, if you  want  to  treat  the
286       files as pingd modules.
287
288
289
290       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
291       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
292       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
293       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
294
295

COMMANDS

297       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
298       mappings.
299
300       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
301       process type is permissive.
302
303       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
304       icy modules.
305
306       semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
307
308       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
309
310
311       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
312       icy settings.
