netlabel_selinux(8)  netlabel SELinux Policy documentation netlabel_selinux(8)

NAME
       netlabel_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the netlabel pro‐
       cesses

DESCRIPTION
       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the  netlabel  processes	 via  flexible
       mandatory access control.

NSSWITCH DOMAIN
FILE CONTEXTS
       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
       type.

       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls

       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to	 these	files.
       SELinux	netlabel policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
       netlabel processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following file types are defined for netlabel:

       netlabel_mgmt_exec_t

       - Set files with the netlabel_mgmt_exec_t type, if you want to  transi‐
       tion an executable to the netlabel_mgmt_t domain.

       Paths:
	    /sbin/netlabelctl, /usr/sbin/netlabelctl

       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
       If you want to permanantly change the file context you need to use  the
       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

PROCESS TYPES
       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
       system

       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps

       Policy  governs	the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
       netlabel policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their netlabel
       processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following process types are defined for netlabel:

       netlabel_mgmt_t

       Note: semanage permissive -a PROCESS_TYPE can be used to make a process
       type permissive. Permissive process types  are  not  denied  access  by
       SELinux. AVC messages will still be generated.

COMMANDS
       semanage	 fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
       mappings.

       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or	not  a
       process type is permissive.

       semanage	 module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
       icy modules.

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
       icy settings.
