MobileMe: Setting up and troubleshooting secure iChat

MobileMe enhances iChat in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard by providing a means for creating secure chat interactions between MobileMe subscribers. In a secure chat text, audio, or video chat, all data transferred in the chat is encrypted. To use this safeguard, you and your chat buddy must both have MobileMe memberships and enable Secure Chat.When both you and your chat buddy have MobileMe Secure iChat enabled and you start a chat, a lock icon appears in the upper-right corner of the iChat window. Text, audio and video are encrypted on your computer, sent across the Internet encrypted, and are not decrypted until they reach your buddy’s computer.

NAME
securetty_types - The SELinux secure tty type configuration file DESCRIPTION
The securetty_types file contains a list of types associated to secure tty type that are defined in the policy for use by SELinux-aware applications. selinux_securetty_types_path(3) will return the active policy path to this file. The default securetty types file is: /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/securetty_types Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)). selinux_check_securetty_context(3) reads this file to determine if a context is for a secure tty defined in the active policy. SELinux-aware applications such as newrole(1) use this information to check the status of a tty. FILE FORMAT
Each line in the file consists of the following entry: type One or more type entries that are defined in the policy for secure tty devices. EXAMPLE
# ./contexts/securetty_types sysadm_tty_device_t user_tty_device_t staff_tty_device_t SEE ALSO
