6 slapd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the slapd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the slapd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The slapd processes execute with the slapd_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 slapd_t
19
20
21
23 The slapd_t SELinux type can be entered via the slapd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the slapd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/lib/slapd, /usr/sbin/slapd, /usr/lib/openldap/slapd
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 slapd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their slapd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for slapd:
40
41 slapd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a slapd_t can be used to make the process
44 type slapd_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. slapd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run slapd with the tightest access possible.

168 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
169 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

264 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
265 type.
266
267 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
268
269 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
270 SELinux slapd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
271 slapd processes in as secure a method as possible.
272
273 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
274
275
276 slapd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
277 under the /var/lib/ldap directory. If you would like to store the data
278 in a different directory you can use the semanage command to create an
279 equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the /srv
280 dirctory you would execute the following command:
281
282 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/ldap /srv/ldap
283 restorecon -R -v /srv/ldap
284
285 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
286
287 SELinux defines the file context types for the slapd, if you wanted to
288 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
289 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
290 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
291
292 semanage fcontext -a -t slapd_var_run_t '/srv/myslapd_content(/.*)?'
293 restorecon -R -v /srv/myslapd_content
294
295 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
296 match multiple files.
297
298 The following file types are defined for slapd:
299
300

408 /var/run/slapd.args
409
410
411 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
412 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
413 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
414 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
415
416
418 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
419 mappings.
420
421 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
422 process type is permissive.
423
424 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
425 icy modules.
426
427 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
428
429
430 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
431 icy settings.
