NAME

6       pam_timestamp_selinux   -   Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the
7       pam_timestamp processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pam_timestamp processes via  flexi‐
11       ble mandatory access control.
12
13       The  pam_timestamp  processes  execute with the pam_timestamp_t SELinux
14       type. You can check if you have these processes  running  by  executing
15       the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep pam_timestamp_t
20

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  pam_timestamp_t  SELinux  type  can  be  entered via the pam_time‐
25       stamp_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the  pam_timestamp_t  domain  are  the
28       following:
29
30       /sbin/pam_timestamp_check, /usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       pam_timestamp  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup their
40       pam_timestamp processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for pam_timestamp:
43
44       pam_timestamp_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a pam_timestamp_t can be used  to  make  the
47       process  type  pam_timestamp_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48       to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49       still generated.

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
54       pam_timestamp policy is extremely flexible  and  has  several  booleans
55       that  allow you to manipulate the policy and run pam_timestamp with the
56       tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71

73

FILE CONTEXTS

75       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
76       type.
77
78       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
79
80       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
81       SELinux pam_timestamp policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup
82       their pam_timestamp processes in as secure a method as possible.
83
84       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
85
86       SELinux  defines  the  file context types for the pam_timestamp, if you
87       wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need  to
88       execute  the  semanage  command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
89       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
90
91       semanage fcontext -a -t pam_timestamp_tmp_t  '/srv/mypam_timestamp_con‐
92       tent(/.*)?'
93       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypam_timestamp_content
94
95       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
96       match multiple files.
97
98       The following file types are defined for pam_timestamp:
99
100
101
102       pam_timestamp_exec_t
103
104       - Set files with the pam_timestamp_exec_t type, if you want to  transi‐
105       tion an executable to the pam_timestamp_t domain.
106
107
108       Paths:
109            /sbin/pam_timestamp_check, /usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check
110
111
112       pam_timestamp_tmp_t
113
114       - Set files with the pam_timestamp_tmp_t type, if you want to store pam
115       timestamp temporary files in the /tmp directories.
116
117
118
119       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
120       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
121       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
122       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

124

COMMANDS

126       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
127       mappings.
128
129       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
130       process type is permissive.
131
132       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
133       icy modules.
134
135       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
136
137
138       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
139       icy settings.
