NAME

6       saslauthd_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced Linux Policy for the saslauthd
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the saslauthd  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  saslauthd processes execute with the saslauthd_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 saslauthd_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  saslauthd_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the saslauthd_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the saslauthd_t domain are the follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/saslauthd
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       saslauthd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their saslau‐
40       thd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for saslauthd:
43
44       saslauthd_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a  saslauthd_t  can  be  used  to  make  the
47       process  type  saslauthd_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48       permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux  denials)  messages  are
49       still generated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  saslau‐
54       thd policy is extremely flexible and has several  booleans  that  allow
55       you to manipulate the policy and run saslauthd with the tightest access
56       possible.

FILE CONTEXTS

255       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
256       type.
257
258       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
259
260       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
261       SELinux saslauthd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
262       saslauthd processes in as secure a method as possible.
263
264       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
265
266       SELinux defines the file context types for the saslauthd, if you wanted
267       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
268       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
269       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
270
271       semanage  fcontext  -a  -t  saslauthd_var_run_t  '/srv/mysaslauthd_con‐
272       tent(/.*)?'
273       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysaslauthd_content
274
275       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
276       match multiple files.
277
278       The following file types are defined for saslauthd:
279
280
281
282       saslauthd_exec_t
283
284       - Set files with the saslauthd_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition
285       an executable to the saslauthd_t domain.
286
287
288
289       saslauthd_initrc_exec_t
290
291       - Set files with the saslauthd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
292       sition an executable to the saslauthd_initrc_t domain.
293
294
295
296       saslauthd_keytab_t
297
298       - Set files with the saslauthd_keytab_t type, if you want to treat  the
299       files as kerberos keytab files.
300
301
302
303       saslauthd_var_run_t
304
305       - Set files with the saslauthd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
306       saslauthd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
307
308
309
310       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
311       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
312       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
313       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
314
315

COMMANDS

317       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
318       mappings.
319
320       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
321       process type is permissive.
322
323       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
324       icy modules.
325
326       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
327
328
329       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
330       icy settings.
