NAME

       smbmount_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the smbmount processes

DESCRIPTION

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

       The smbmount processes execute with the smbmount_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com-
       mand with the -Z qualifier.

       For example:

       ps -eZ | grep smbmount_t

ENTRYPOINTS

       The smbmount_t SELinux type can be entered via the smbmount_exec_t file type.

       The default entrypoint paths for the smbmount_t domain are the following:

       /usr/bin/smbmnt, /usr/bin/smbmount

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 smbmount policy is very flexible allowing users to	setup  their  smb-
       mount processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following process types are defined for smbmount:

       smbmount_t

       Note: semanage permissive -a smbmount_t can be used to make the process type smbmount_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permis-
       sive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

BOOLEANS

       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  smbmount policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that  allow
       you to manipulate the policy and run smbmount with the tightest access possible.

       If  you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo-
       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

       If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other processes, you must  turn  on  the	deny_ptrace  boolean.  Enabled	by
       default.

       setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1

       If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors, you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1

       If  you	want  to  allow  all domains to have the kernel load modules, you must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
       default.

       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1

       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P fips_mode 1

       If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P global_ssp 1

       If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

       If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

       If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory, you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

NSSWITCH DOMAIN

       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server for the smbmount_t,  you  must
       turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean.

       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

       If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos for the smbmount_t, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean.

       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

MANAGED FILES

       The  SELinux  process  type  smbmount_t can manage files labeled with the following file types.	The paths listed are the default paths for
       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

       etc_runtime_t

	    /[^/]+
	    /etc/mtab.*
	    /etc/blkid(/.*)?
	    /etc/nologin.*
	    /etc/.fstab.hal..+
	    /halt
	    /poweroff
	    /fastboot
	    /etc/cmtab
	    /forcefsck
	    /.autofsck
	    /.suspended
	    /fsckoptions
	    /.autorelabel
	    /etc/killpower
	    /etc/securetty
	    /etc/nohotplug
	    /etc/ioctl.save
	    /etc/fstab.REVOKE
	    /etc/network/ifstate
	    /etc/sysconfig/hwconf
	    /etc/ptal/ptal-printd-like
	    /etc/sysconfig/iptables.save
	    /etc/xorg.conf.d/00-system-setup-keyboard.conf
	    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-system-setup-keyboard.conf

       samba_log_t

	    /var/log/samba(/.*)?

       samba_secrets_t

	    /etc/samba/smbpasswd
	    /etc/samba/passdb.tdb
	    /etc/samba/MACHINE.SID
	    /etc/samba/secrets.tdb

       samba_var_t

	    /var/nmbd(/.*)?
	    /var/lib/samba(/.*)?
	    /var/cache/samba(/.*)?
	    /var/spool/samba(/.*)?

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 smbmount policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
       smbmount processes in as secure a method as possible.

       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

       SELinux defines the file context types for the smbmount, if you wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to exe-
       cute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.

       semanage fcontext -a -t smbmount_exec_t '/srv/smbmount/content(/.*)?'
       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysmbmount_content

       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

       The following file types are defined for smbmount:

       smbmount_exec_t

       - Set files with the smbmount_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the smbmount_t domain.

       Paths:
	    /usr/bin/smbmnt, /usr/bin/smbmount

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

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 policy modules.

       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

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