NAME

       service_seusers  -  The  SELinux  GNU/Linux  user  and  service  to  SELinux  user mapping
       configuration files

DESCRIPTION

       These are optional files that allow services to define an SELinux user when authenticating
       via SELinux-aware login applications such as PAM(8).

       There is one file for each GNU/Linux user name that will be required to run a service with
       a specific SELinux user name.

       The  path  for  each  configuration   file   is   formed   by   the   path   returned   by
       selinux_policy_root(3)   with   /logins/username   appended  (where  username  is  a  file
       representing the GNU/Linux user name). The default services directory is located at:
              /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/logins

       Where {SELINUXTYPE}  is  the  entry  from  the  selinux  configuration  file  config  (see
       selinux_config(5)).

       getseuser(3) reads this file to map services to an SELinux user.

FILE FORMAT

       Each  line  within the username file is formatted as follows with each component separated
       by a colon:
              service:seuser[:range]

       Where:
              service
                     The service name used by the application.
              seuser
                     The SELinux user name.
              range
                     The range for MCS/MLS policies.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 - for the 'root' user:
              # ./logins/root
              ipa:user_u:s0
              this_service:unconfined_u:s0

       Example 2 - for GNU/Linux user 'rch':
              # ./logins/rch
              ipa:unconfined_u:s0
              that_service:unconfined_u:s0
