NAME

6       smbmount_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the smbmount pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the  smbmount  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  smbmount  processes  execute with the smbmount_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 smbmount_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The smbmount_t SELinux type can be entered via the smbmount_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the smbmount_t domain are the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/bin/smbmnt, /usr/bin/smbmount
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       smbmount policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their smbmount
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for smbmount:
43
44       smbmount_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a smbmount_t can be used to make the process
47       type  smbmount_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.

51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux  policy  is  customizable based on least access required.  smb‐
54       mount policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that  allow
55       you  to manipulate the policy and run smbmount with the tightest access
56       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

MANAGED FILES

68       The  SELinux  process type smbmount_t can manage files labeled with the
69       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
70       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
71
72       samba_log_t
73
74            /var/log/samba(/.*)?
75
76       samba_secrets_t
77
78            /etc/samba/smbpasswd
79            /etc/samba/passdb.tdb
80            /etc/samba/MACHINE.SID
81            /etc/samba/secrets.tdb

83

FILE CONTEXTS

85       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
86       type.
87
88       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
89
90       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
91       SELinux  smbmount policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
92       smbmount processes in as secure a method as possible.
93
94       The following file types are defined for smbmount:
95
96
97
98       smbmount_exec_t
99
100       - Set files with the smbmount_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
101       executable to the smbmount_t domain.
102
103
104       Paths:
105            /usr/bin/smbmnt, /usr/bin/smbmount
106
107
108       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
109       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
110       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
111       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
112
113

COMMANDS

115       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
116       mappings.
117
118       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
119       process type is permissive.
120
121       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
122       icy modules.
123
124       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
125
126
127       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
128       icy settings.
