NAME

6       named_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the named processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the named processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The named processes execute with the  named_t  SELinux  type.  You  can
13       check  if  you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14       with the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep named_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The named_t SELinux type can be entered via the named_checkconf_exec_t,
24       named_exec_t file types.
25
26       The default entrypoint paths for the named_t domain are the following:
27
28       /usr/sbin/named-checkconf,      /usr/sbin/named,      /usr/sbin/lwresd,
29       /usr/sbin/unbound,     /usr/sbin/named-sdb,     /usr/sbin/named-pkcs11,
30       /usr/sbin/unbound-anchor, /usr/sbin/unbound-control, /usr/sbin/unbound-
31       checkconf
32

PROCESS TYPES

34       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35       system
36
37       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
40       named policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their named  pro‐
41       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for named:
44
45       named_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a named_t can be used to make the process
48       type named_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
49       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
50       ated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.   named
55       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
56       manipulate the policy and run named with the tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to determine whether Bind  can  bind  tcp  socket  to  http
61       ports,  you must turn on the named_tcp_bind_http_port boolean. Disabled
62       by default.
63
64       setsebool -P named_tcp_bind_http_port 1
65
66
67
68       If you want to determine whether Bind can write to master  zone  files.
69       Generally this is used for dynamic DNS or zone transfers, you must turn
70       on the named_write_master_zones boolean. Enabled by default.
71
72       setsebool -P named_write_master_zones 1
73
74
75
76       If you want to dontaudit all  daemons  scheduling  requests  (setsched,
77       sys_nice),  you  must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
78       Enabled by default.
79
80       setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
81
82
83
84       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
85       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
86
87       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
88
89
90
91       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
92       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
93
94       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
95
96
97

MANAGED FILES

99       The SELinux process type named_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
100       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
101       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

195       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
196       type.
197
198       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
199
200       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
201       SELinux named policy is very flexible allowing  users  to  setup  their
202       named processes in as secure a method as possible.
203
204       EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
205
206
207       named policy stores data with multiple different file context types un‐
208       der the /var/named directory.  If you would like to store the data in a
209       different  directory  you  can  use  the  semanage command to create an
210       equivalence mapping.  If you wanted to store this data under  the  /srv
211       directory you would execute the following command:
212
213       semanage fcontext -a -e /var/named /srv/named
214       restorecon -R -v /srv/named
215
216       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
217
218       SELinux  defines the file context types for the named, if you wanted to
219       store files with these types in a different paths, you need to  execute
220       the  semanage  command  to  specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
221       storecon to put the labels on disk.
222
223       semanage fcontext -a -t named_exec_t '/srv/named/content(/.*)?'
224       restorecon -R -v /srv/mynamed_content
225
226       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
227       match multiple files.
228
229       The following file types are defined for named:
230

351
352       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
353       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
354       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
355       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
356
357

COMMANDS

359       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
360       mappings.
361
362       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
363       process type is permissive.
364
365       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
366       icy modules.
367
368       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
369
370
371       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
372       icy settings.
