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

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



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

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The smbd
processes execute with the smbd_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 smbd_t</b></p>

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


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The smbd_t
SELinux type can be entered via the <b>smbd_exec_t</b> file
type.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The default
entrypoint paths for the smbd_t domain are the
following:</p>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">/usr/sbin/smbd</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 smbd
policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their smbd
processes in as secure a method as possible.</p>

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


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

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note:
<b>semanage permissive -a smbd_t</b> can be used to make the
process type smbd_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. smbd policy
is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
you to manipulate the policy and run smbd with the tightest
access possible.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,

<h2>PORT TYPES

</h2>


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

<h2>FILE CONTEXTS
<a name="FILE CONTEXTS"></a>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux
requires files to have an extended attribute to define the
file type.</p>

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

smbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their

DIRECTORIES</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">smbd policy
stores data with multiple different file context types under
the /var/run/samba directory. If you would like to store the
data in a different directory you can use the semanage
command to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to
store this data under the /srv directory you would execute
the following command:</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>semanage
fcontext -a -e /var/run/samba /srv/samba <br>
restorecon -R -v /srv/samba</b></p>

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

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
the file context types for the smbd, if you wanted to store
files with these types in a different paths, you need to
execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note: SELinux
often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match
multiple files.</p>

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

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