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.
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
72
73
74 If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the
75 use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Enabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
78
79
80
81 If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
82 use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
83
84 setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
85
86
87
89 The SELinux process type samba_net_t can manage files labeled with the
90 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
91 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
92
93 auth_cache_t
94
95 /var/cache/coolkey(/.*)?
96
97 ctdbd_var_lib_t
98
99 /var/lib/ctdb(/.*)?
100 /var/lib/ctdbd(/.*)?
101
102 krb5_keytab_t
103
104 /var/kerberos/krb5(/.*)?
105 /etc/krb5.keytab
106 /etc/krb5kdc/kadm5.keytab
107 /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kadm5.keytab
108
109 realmd_var_cache_t
110
111 /var/cache/realmd(/.*)?
112
113 samba_secrets_t
114
115 /etc/samba/smbpasswd
116 /etc/samba/passdb.tdb
117 /etc/samba/MACHINE.SID
118 /etc/samba/secrets.tdb
119
120
122 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
123 type.
124
125 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
126
127 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
128 SELinux samba_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
129 samba_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
130
131 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
132
133 SELinux defines the file context types for the samba_net, if you wanted
134 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
135 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
136 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
137
138 semanage fcontext -a -t samba_net_tmp_t '/srv/mysamba_net_con‐
139 tent(/.*)?'
140 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysamba_net_content
141
142 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
143 match multiple files.
144
145 The following file types are defined for samba_net:
146
147
148
149 samba_net_exec_t
150
151 - Set files with the samba_net_exec_t type, if you want to transition
152 an executable to the samba_net_t domain.
153
154
155
156 samba_net_tmp_t
157
158 - Set files with the samba_net_tmp_t type, if you want to store samba
159 net temporary files in the /tmp directories.
160
161
162
163 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
164 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
165 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
166 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
167
168
170 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
171 mappings.
172
173 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
174 process type is permissive.
175
176 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
177 icy modules.
178
179 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
180
181
182 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
183 icy settings.
