NAME

6       nslcd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nslcd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

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

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The nslcd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nslcd_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the nslcd_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/sbin/nslcd
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       nslcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nslcd  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for nslcd:
40
41       nslcd_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a nslcd_t can be used to make the process
44       type nslcd_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.
47
48

BOOLEANS

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

MANAGED FILES

150       The SELinux process type nslcd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
151       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
152       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

217       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
218       type.
219
220       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
221
222       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
223       SELinux  nslcd  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
224       nslcd processes in as secure a method as possible.
225
226       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
227
228       SELinux defines the file context types for the nslcd, if you wanted  to
229       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
230       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
231       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
232
233       semanage fcontext -a -t nslcd_var_run_t '/srv/mynslcd_content(/.*)?'
234       restorecon -R -v /srv/mynslcd_content
235
236       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
237       match multiple files.
238
239       The following file types are defined for nslcd:
240
241
242
243       nslcd_conf_t
244
245       - Set files with the nslcd_conf_t type, if you want to treat the  files
246       as nslcd configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
247
248
249
250       nslcd_exec_t
251
252       -  Set  files  with the nslcd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
253       executable to the nslcd_t domain.
254
255
256
257       nslcd_initrc_exec_t
258
259       - Set files with the nslcd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want  to  transi‐
260       tion an executable to the nslcd_initrc_t domain.
261
262
263
264       nslcd_var_run_t
265
266       -  Set  files  with  the nslcd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
267       nslcd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
268
269
270
271       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
272       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
273       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
274       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
275
276

COMMANDS

278       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
279       mappings.
280
281       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
282       process type is permissive.
283
284       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
285       icy modules.
286
287       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
288
289
290       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
291       icy settings.
