6 samba_net_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the samba_net
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the samba_net processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The samba_net processes execute with the samba_net_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 samba_net_t
20
21
22
24 The samba_net_t SELinux type can be entered via the samba_net_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the samba_net_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/net
31
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 samba_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 samba_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for samba_net:
43
44 samba_net_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a samba_net_t can be used to make the
47 process type samba_net_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 samba_net policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run samba_net with the tightest
56 access possible.

154
155
157 The SELinux process type samba_net_t can manage files labeled with the
158 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
159 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
160

198 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
199 type.
200
201 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
202
203 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
204 SELinux samba_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
205 samba_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
206
207 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
208
209 SELinux defines the file context types for the samba_net, if you wanted
210 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
211 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
212 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
213
214 semanage fcontext -a -t samba_net_tmp_t '/srv/mysamba_net_con‐
215 tent(/.*)?'
216 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysamba_net_content
217
218 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
219 match multiple files.
220
221 The following file types are defined for samba_net:
222
223
224
225 samba_net_exec_t
226
227 - Set files with the samba_net_exec_t type, if you want to transition
228 an executable to the samba_net_t domain.
229
230
231
232 samba_net_tmp_t
233
234 - Set files with the samba_net_tmp_t type, if you want to store samba
235 net temporary files in the /tmp directories.
236
237
238
239 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
240 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
241 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
242 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
243
244
246 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
247 mappings.
248
249 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
250 process type is permissive.
251
252 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
253 icy modules.
254
255 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
256
257
258 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
259 icy settings.
