NAME

6       lsmd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the lsmd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the lsmd processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The lsmd processes execute with the lsmd_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 lsmd_t

21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The lsmd_t SELinux type can be entered via the lsmd_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the lsmd_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/bin/lsmd

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       lsmd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  lsmd  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for lsmd:
40
41       lsmd_t, lsmd_plugin_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  lsmd_t can be used to make the process
44       type lsmd_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   lsmd
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run lsmd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
57       ldap  rather  then  using  a  sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
58       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
59
60       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
61
62
63
64       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
65       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
66
67       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
68
69
70
71       If  you  want  to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
72       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
73
74       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
75
76
77
78       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
79       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
80
81       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
82
83
84
85       If  you  want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
86       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
87
88       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

PORT TYPES

93       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
94
95       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
96       command:
97
98       semanage port -l
