6 nslcd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nslcd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nslcd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The nslcd processes execute with the nslcd_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 nslcd_t
19
20
21
23 The nslcd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nslcd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the nslcd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/nslcd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 nslcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nslcd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for nslcd:
40
41 nslcd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a nslcd_t can be used to make the process
44 type nslcd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nslcd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run nslcd with the tightest access possible.
53

55
56 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
57 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
58 Enabled by default.
59
60 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
65 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
66
67 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
68
69
70
71 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
72 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
73
74 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
75
76
77
79 The SELinux process type nslcd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
80 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
81 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

139 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
140 type.
141
142 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
143
144 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
145 SELinux nslcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
146 nslcd processes in as secure a method as possible.
147
148 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
149
150 SELinux defines the file context types for the nslcd, if you wanted to
151 store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute
152 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
153 storecon to put the labels on disk.
154
155 semanage fcontext -a -t nslcd_exec_t '/srv/nslcd/content(/.*)?'
156 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynslcd_content
157
158 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
159 match multiple files.
160
161 The following file types are defined for nslcd:
162
163
164
165 nslcd_conf_t
166
167 - Set files with the nslcd_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files
168 as nslcd configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
169
170
171
172 nslcd_exec_t
173
174 - Set files with the nslcd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
175 executable to the nslcd_t domain.
176
177
178
179 nslcd_initrc_exec_t
180
181 - Set files with the nslcd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
182 tion an executable to the nslcd_initrc_t domain.
183
184
185
186 nslcd_var_run_t
187
188 - Set files with the nslcd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
189 nslcd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
190
191
192
193 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
194 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
195 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
196 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
197
198
200 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
201 mappings.
202
203 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
204 process type is permissive.
205
206 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
207 icy modules.
208
209 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
210
211
212 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
213 icy settings.
