<h2>NAME
<a name="NAME"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">admin_crontab_selinux
− Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the admin_crontab
processes</p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Security-Enhanced
Linux secures the admin_crontab processes via flexible
mandatory access control.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The
admin_crontab processes execute with the admin_crontab_t
SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
running by executing the <b>ps</b> command with the
<b>−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 admin_crontab_t</b></p>
<h2>ENTRYPOINTS
<a name="ENTRYPOINTS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The
admin_crontab_t SELinux type can be entered via the
<b>crontab_exec_t</b> file type.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The default
entrypoint paths for the admin_crontab_t domain are the
following:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">/usr/bin/(f)?crontab,
/usr/bin/at, /usr/sbin/fcronsighup,
/usr/libexec/fcronsighup</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>−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
admin_crontab policy is very flexible allowing users to
setup their admin_crontab processes in as secure a method as
possible.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following
process types are defined for admin_crontab:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>admin_crontab_t</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note:
<b>semanage permissive -a admin_crontab_t</b> can be used to
make the process type admin_crontab_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.
admin_crontab policy is extremely flexible and has several
booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run
admin_crontab with the tightest access possible.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
enable extra rules in the cron domain to support fcron, you
must turn on the fcron_crond boolean. Disabled by
default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
fcron_crond 1</b></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 admin_crontab_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>
