NAME
       afs_ptserver_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the afs_ptserver processes

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

       The afs_ptserver processes execute with the afs_ptserver_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the
       ps command with the -Z qualifier.

       For example:

       ps -eZ | grep afs_ptserver_t

ENTRYPOINTS
       The afs_ptserver_t SELinux type can be entered via the afs_ptserver_exec_t file type.

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

       /usr/afs/bin/ptserver, /usr/libexec/openafs/ptserver

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

       The following process types are defined for afs_ptserver:

       afs_ptserver_t

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

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

       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

MANAGED FILES
       The SELinux process type afs_ptserver_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.

       afs_logfile_t

	    /usr/afs/logs(/.*)?

       afs_pt_db_t

	    /usr/afs/db/pr.*

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

       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

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

       semanage fcontext -a -t afs_ptserver_exec_t '/srv/afs_ptserver/content(/.*)?'
       restorecon -R -v /srv/myafs_ptserver_content

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

       The following file types are defined for afs_ptserver:

       afs_ptserver_exec_t

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

       Paths:
	    /usr/afs/bin/ptserver, /usr/libexec/openafs/ptserver

       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.
