bcfg2_selinux(8)	     SELinux Policy bcfg2	      bcfg2_selinux(8)

NAME
       bcfg2_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the bcfg2 processes

DESCRIPTION
       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the bcfg2 processes via flexible manda‐
       tory access control.

       The bcfg2 processes execute with the  bcfg2_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 bcfg2_t

ENTRYPOINTS
       The bcfg2_t SELinux type can be entered via the bcfg2_exec_t file type.

       The default entrypoint paths for the bcfg2_t domain are the following:

       /usr/sbin/bcfg2-server

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
       bcfg2 policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their bcfg2  pro‐
       cesses in as secure a method as possible.

       The following process types are defined for bcfg2:

       bcfg2_t

       Note:  semanage	permissive  -a bcfg2_t can be used to make the process
       type bcfg2_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny	access	to  permissive
       process	types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
       ated.

BOOLEANS
       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.	 bcfg2
       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
       manipulate the policy and run bcfg2 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 allow all daemons to write corefiles to /, you must turn
       on the daemons_dump_core boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P daemons_dump_core 1

       If  you	want  to enable cluster mode for daemons, you must turn on the
       daemons_enable_cluster_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P daemons_enable_cluster_mode 1

       If you want to allow all daemons to use tcp wrappers, you must turn  on
       the daemons_use_tcp_wrapper boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P daemons_use_tcp_wrapper 1

       If  you	want to allow all daemons the ability to read/write terminals,
       you must turn on the daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P daemons_use_tty 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. Disabled 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 bcfg2_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
       bcfg2_t, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean.

       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

MANAGED FILES
       The SELinux process type bcfg2_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for	 these
       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

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	bcfg2  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
       bcfg2 processes in as secure a method as possible.

       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

       SELinux defines the file context types for the bcfg2, 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 bcfg2_exec_t '/srv/bcfg2/content(/.*)?'
       restorecon -R -v /srv/mybcfg2_content

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

       The following file types are defined for bcfg2:

       bcfg2_exec_t

       - Set files with the bcfg2_exec_t type, if you want  to	transition  an
       executable to the bcfg2_t domain.

       bcfg2_initrc_exec_t

       -  Set  files with the bcfg2_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
       tion an executable to the bcfg2_initrc_t domain.

       bcfg2_unit_file_t

       - Set files with the bcfg2_unit_file_t type, if you want to  treat  the
       files as bcfg2 unit content.

       bcfg2_var_lib_t

       -  Set  files  with  the bcfg2_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
       bcfg2 files under the /var/lib directory.

       bcfg2_var_run_t

       - Set files with the bcfg2_var_run_t type, if you  want	to  store  the
       bcfg2 files under the /run or /var/run directory.

       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 data‐
       base.  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  pol‐
       icy modules.

       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
       icy settings.
