NAME

       restorecond - daemon that watches for file creation and then sets the default SELinux file context

SYNOPSIS

       restorecond [-d] [-h] [-f restorecond_file ] [-u] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page describes the restorecond program.

       This daemon uses inotify to watch files listed in the /etc/selinux/restorecond.conf, when they are created, this daemon will make sure they
       have the correct file context associated with the policy.

OPTIONS

       -d     Turns on debugging mode.	 Application will stay in the foreground and lots of debugs messages start printing.

       -h     Print usage statement.

       -f restorecond_file
	      Use alternative restorecond.conf file.

       -u     Turns on user mode.  Runs restorecond in the user session and reads /etc/selinux/restorecond_user.conf.  Uses dbus to make sure only
	      one restorecond is running per user session.

       -v     Turns on verbose debugging.  (Report missing files)

NAME

       rsync_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the rsync daemon

DESCRIPTION

       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the rsync server via flexible mandatory access control.

FILE_CONTEXTS
       SELinux	requires  files to have an extended attribute to define the file type.	Policy governs the access daemons have to these files.	If
       you want to share files using the rsync daemon, you must label the files and directories public_content_t.  So if  you  created	a  special
       directory /var/rsync, you would need to label the directory with the chcon tool.

       chcon -t public_content_t /var/rsync

       To make this change permanent (survive a relabel), use the semanage command to add the change to file context configuration:

       semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/rsync(/.*)?"

       This command adds the following entry to /etc/selinux/POLICYTYPE/contexts/files/file_contexts.local:

       /var/rsync(/.*)? system_u:object_r:publix_content_t:s0

       Run the restorecon command to apply the changes:

       restorecon -R -v /var/rsync/

SHARING FILES

       If  you	want  to  share  files	with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync, Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and pub-
       lic_content_rw_t.  These context allow any of the above domains to read the content.  If you want a particular domain to write to the  pub-
       lic_content_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean.  allow_DOMAIN_anon_write.  So for rsync you would execute:

       setsebool -P allow_rsync_anon_write=1

BOOLEANS

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
