NAME

       ypbind_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for NIS.

DESCRIPTION

       Security-Enhanced  Linux  secures  the  system  via flexible mandatory access control. SELinux can be setup deny NIS from working, since it
       requires daemons to be allowed greater access to the network.

BOOLEANS

       You must set the allow_ypbind boolean to allow your system to work properly in a NIS environment.

       setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1

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

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
