<h2>NAME
<a name="NAME"></a>
</h2>



<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">logwatch_mail_selinux
&minus; Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the logwatch_mail
processes</p>

<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>



<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Security-Enhanced
Linux secures the logwatch_mail processes via flexible
mandatory access control.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The
logwatch_mail processes execute with the logwatch_mail_t
SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
running by executing the <b>ps</b> command with the
<b>&minus;Z</b> qualifier.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">For
example:</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>ps -eZ |
grep logwatch_mail_t</b></p>

<h2>PROCESS TYPES
<a name="PROCESS TYPES"></a>
</h2>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
process types (domains) for each process running on the
system</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can see the
context of a process using the <b>&minus;Z</b> option to
<b>ps</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Policy governs
the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
logwatch_mail policy is very flexible allowing users to
setup their logwatch_mail processes in as secure a method as
possible.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following
process types are defined for logwatch_mail:</p>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>logwatch_mail_t</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note:
<b>semanage permissive -a logwatch_mail_t</b> can be used to
make the process type logwatch_mail_t permissive. SELinux
does not deny access to permissive process types, but the
AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.</p>

<h2>BOOLEANS
<a name="BOOLEANS"></a>
</h2>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux policy
is customizable based on least access required.
logwatch_mail policy is extremely flexible and has several
booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run
logwatch_mail with the tightest access possible.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on
the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
fips_mode 1</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
nis_enabled 1</b></p>

<h2>MANAGED FILES
<a name="MANAGED FILES"></a>
</h2>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The SELinux
process type logwatch_mail_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.</p>
