− <b>Least privileged xwindows user role.</b> -
Security Enhanced Linux Policy</p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>xguest_u</b>
is an SELinux User defined in the SELinux policy. SELinux
users have default roles, <b>xguest_r</b>. The default role
has a default type, <b>xguest_t</b>, associated with it.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The SELinux
user will usually login to a system with a context that
looks like:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>xguest_u:xguest_r:xguest_t:s0</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Linux users are
automatically assigned an SELinux users at login. Login
programs use the SELinux User to assign initial context to
the user’s shell.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux policy
uses the context to control the user’s access.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">By default all
users are assigned to the SELinux user via the
<b>__default__</b> flag</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">On Targeted
policy systems the <b>__default__</b> user is assigned to
the <b>unconfined_u</b> SELinux user.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can list
all Linux User to SELinux user mapping using:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>semanage
login -l</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you wanted
to change the default user mapping to use the xguest_u user,
you would execute:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>semanage
login -m -s xguest_u __default__</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
map the one Linux user (joe) to the SELinux user xguest, you
would execute:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>$ semanage
login -a -s xguest_u joe</b></p>
<h2>USER DESCRIPTION

</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The SELinux
