service_seusers(5)					       SELinux configuration						service_seusers(5)

NAME
service_seusers - The SELinux GNU/Linux user and service to SELinux user mapping configuration files. DESCRIPTION
These are optional files that allow services to define an SELinux user when authenticating via SELinux-aware login applications such as PAM(8). There is one file for each GNU/Linux user name that will be required to run a service with a specific SELinux user name. The path for each configuration file is formed by the path returned by selinux_policy_root(3) with /logins/username appended (where user- name is a file representing the GNU/Linux user name). The default services directory is located at: /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/logins Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)). getseuser(3) reads this file to map services to an SELinux user. FILE FORMAT
Each line within the username file is formatted as follows with each component separated by a colon: service:seuser[:range] Where: service The service name used by the application. seuser The SELinux user name. range The range for MCS/MLS policies. EXAMPLES
Example 1 - for the 'root' user: # ./logins/root ipa:user_u:s0 this_service:unconfined_u:s0 Example 2 - for GNU/Linux user 'rch': # ./logins/rch ipa:unconfined_u:s0 that_service:unconfined_u:s0 SEE ALSO

NAME
local.users - The SELinux local users configuration file. DESCRIPTION
The file contains local user definitions in the form of policy language user statements and is only found on older SELinux systems as it has been deprecated and replaced by the semange(8) services. This file is only read by selinux_mkload_policy(3) when SETLOCALDEFS in the SELinux config file (see selinux_config(5)) is set to 1. selinux_users_path(3) will return the active policy path to the directory where this file is located. The default local users file is: /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/users/local.users Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)). FILE FORMAT
The file consists of one or more entries terminated with ';', each on a separate line as follows: user seuser_id roles role_id [[level level] [range range]]; Where: user The user keyword. seuser_id The SELinux user identifier. roles The roles keyword. role_id One or more previously declared role identifiers. Multiple role identifiers consist of a space separated list enclosed in braces '{}'. level If MLS/MCS is configured, the level keyword. level The users default security level. Note that only the sensitivity component of the level (e.g. s0) is required. range If MLS/MCS is configured, the range keyword. range The current and clearance levels that the user can run. These are separated by a hyphen '-' as shown in the EXAMPLE section. EXAMPLE
# ./users/local.users user test_u roles staff_r level s0 range s0 - s15:c0.c1023; SEE ALSO
