6 nmbd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nmbd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nmbd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The nmbd processes execute with the nmbd_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep nmbd_t
19
20
21
23 The nmbd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nmbd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the nmbd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/nmbd
28
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 nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for nmbd:
40
41 nmbd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a nmbd_t can be used to make the process
44 type nmbd_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
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nmbd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run nmbd with the tightest access possible.

181 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
182
183 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
184 command:
185
186 semanage port -l
187
188
189 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
190 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
191 processes in as secure a method as possible.
192
193 The following port types are defined for nmbd:
194
195
196 nmbd_port_t
197
198
199
200 Default Defined Ports:
201 udp 137,138
202
204 The SELinux process type nmbd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
205 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
206 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
207

232
233 non_security_file_type
234
235
236 noxattrfs
237
238 all files on file systems which do not support extended attributes
239
240
242 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
243 type.
244
245 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
246
247 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
248 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
249 processes in as secure a method as possible.
250
251 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
252
253
254 nmbd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
255 under the /var/run/samba/nmbd directory. If you would like to store
256 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
257 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
258 the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
259
260 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/samba/nmbd /srv/nmbd
261 restorecon -R -v /srv/nmbd
262
263 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
264
265 SELinux defines the file context types for the nmbd, if you wanted to
266 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
267 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
268 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
269
270 semanage fcontext -a -t nmbd_var_run_t '/srv/mynmbd_content(/.*)?'
271 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynmbd_content
272
273 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
274 match multiple files.
275
276 The following file types are defined for nmbd:
277
278
279
280 nmbd_exec_t
281
282 - Set files with the nmbd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
283 executable to the nmbd_t domain.
284
285
286
287 nmbd_var_run_t
288
289 - Set files with the nmbd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the nmbd
290 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
291
292
293 Paths:
294 /var/run/nmbd(/.*)?, /var/run/samba/nmbd(/.*)?,
295 /var/run/samba/nmbd.pid, /var/run/samba/messages.tdb,
296 /var/run/samba/namelist.debug, /var/run/samba/unexpected.tdb
297
298
299 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
300 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
301 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
302 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
303
304
306 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
307 mappings.
308
309 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
310 process type is permissive.
311
312 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
313 icy modules.
314
315 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
316
317 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
318
319
320 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
321 icy settings.
