NAME

       local.users - The SELinux local users configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       The file contains local user definitions in the form of policy language user statements and is only found
       on older SELinux systems as it has been deprecated and replaced by the semange(8) services.

       This file is only read by selinux_mkload_policy(3) when SETLOCALDEFS in  the  SELinux  config  file  (see
       selinux_config(5)) is set to 1.

       selinux_users_path(3) will return the active policy path to the directory where this file is located. The
       default local users file is:
              /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/users/local.users

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

FILE FORMAT

       The file consists of one or more entries terminated with ';', each on a separate line as follows:
              user seuser_id roles role_id [[level level] [range range]];

       Where:
              user
                     The user keyword.
              seuser_id
                     The SELinux user identifier.
              roles
                     The roles keyword.
              role_id
                     One or more previously declared role identifiers. Multiple role identifiers  consist  of  a
                     space separated list enclosed in braces '{}'.
              level
                     If MLS/MCS is configured, the level keyword.
              level
                     The  users  default  security  level. Note that only the sensitivity component of the level
                     (e.g. s0) is required.
              range
                     If MLS/MCS is configured, the range keyword.
              range
                     The current and clearance levels that the user can run. These are separated by a hyphen '-'
                     as shown in the EXAMPLE section.

EXAMPLE

       # ./users/local.users
