NAME
sepermit.conf - configuration file for the pam_sepermit module DESCRIPTION
The lines of the configuration file have the following syntax: <user>[:<option>:<option>...] The user can be specified in the following manner: o a username o a groupname, with @group syntax. This should not be confused with netgroups. o a SELinux user name with %seuser syntax. The recognized options are: exclusive Only single login session will be allowed for the user and the user's processes will be killed on logout. ignore The module will never return PAM_SUCCESS status for the user. It will return PAM_IGNORE if SELinux is in the enforcing mode, and PAM_AUTH_ERR otherwise. It is useful if you want to support passwordless guest users and other confined users with passwords simultaneously. The lines which start with # character are comments and are ignored. EXAMPLES
These are some example lines which might be specified in /etc/security/sepermit.conf. %guest_u:exclusive %staff_u:ignore %user_u:ignore SEE ALSO

NAME
pam_sepermit - PAM module to allow/deny login depending on SELinux enforcement state SYNOPSIS
pam_sepermit.so [debug] [conf=/path/to/config/file] DESCRIPTION
The pam_sepermit module allows or denies login depending on SELinux enforcement state. When the user which is logging in matches an entry in the config file he is allowed access only when the SELinux is in enforcing mode. Otherwise he is denied access. For users not matching any entry in the config file the pam_sepermit module returns PAM_IGNORE return value. The config file contains a list of user names one per line with optional arguments. If the name is prefixed with @ character it means that all users in the group name match. If it is prefixed with a % character the SELinux user is used to match against the name instead of the account name. Note that when SELinux is disabled the SELinux user assigned to the account cannot be determined. This means that such entries are never matched when SELinux is disabled and pam_sepermit will return PAM_IGNORE. See sepermit.conf(5) for details. OPTIONS
debug Turns on debugging via syslog(3). conf=/path/to/config/file Path to alternative config file overriding the default. MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
The auth and account module types are provided. RETURN VALUES
PAM_AUTH_ERR SELinux is disabled or in the permissive mode and the user matches. PAM_SUCCESS SELinux is in the enforcing mode and the user matches. PAM_IGNORE The user does not match any entry in the config file. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN The module was unable to determine the user's name. PAM_SERVICE_ERR Error during reading or parsing the config file.
