6 amanda_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the amanda pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the amanda processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The amanda processes execute with the amanda_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep amanda_t
20
21
22
24 The amanda_t SELinux type can be entered via the amanda_inetd_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the amanda_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/amandad, /usr/lib/amanda/amandad, /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd,
30 /usr/lib/amanda/amidxtaped
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 amanda policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their amanda
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for amanda:
43
44 amanda_t, amanda_recover_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a amanda_t can be used to make the process
47 type amanda_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. amanda
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run amanda with the tightest access possible.
56
57
58
59 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
60 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
61 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
68 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
75 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
78
79
80
81 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
82 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
83
84 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
85
86
87
88 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
89 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
90
91 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
92
93
94
96 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
97
98 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
99 command:
100
101 semanage port -l
102
103
104 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
105 SELinux amanda policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
106 amanda processes in as secure a method as possible.
107
108 The following port types are defined for amanda:
109
110
111 amanda_port_t
112
113
114
115 Default Defined Ports:
116 tcp 10080-10083
117 udp 10080-10082
118
120 The SELinux process type amanda_t can manage files labeled with the
121 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
122 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

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 amanda policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
205 amanda processes in as secure a method as possible.
206
207 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
208
209
210 amanda policy stores data with multiple different file context types
211 under the /var/lib/amanda directory. If you would like to store the
212 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
213 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
214 /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
215
216 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/amanda /srv/amanda
217 restorecon -R -v /srv/amanda
218
219 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
220
221 SELinux defines the file context types for the amanda, if you wanted to
222 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
223 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
224 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
225
226 semanage fcontext -a -t amanda_recover_dir_t '/srv/myamanda_con‐
227 tent(/.*)?'
228 restorecon -R -v /srv/myamanda_content
229
230 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
231 match multiple files.

361 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
362 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
363 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐

365
366
368 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
369 mappings.
370
371 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
372 process type is permissive.
373
374 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
375 icy modules.
376
377 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
378
379 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
