NAME

       getsebool - get SELinux boolean value(s)

SYNOPSIS

       getsebool [-a] [boolean]

DESCRIPTION

       getsebool reports whether a particular SELinux boolean, or all SELinux booleans, are on or
       off.  In certain situations a boolean can be in one state with a  pending  change  to  the
       other  state. getsebool will report this as a pending change.  The pending value indicates
       the value that will be applied upon the next boolean commit.

       The setting of boolean values occurs in two stages; first the pending  value  is  changed,
       then  the  booleans  are  committed,  causing  their active values to become their pending
       values. This allows a group of booleans to be changed in a single transaction, by  setting
       all of their pending values as desired and then committing once.

OPTIONS

       -a     Show all SELinux booleans.

EXAMPLE

       Show current state of httpd_can_connect_ftp
       # getsebool httpd_can_connect_ftp
