NAME

nx_server_r - nx_server user role - Security Enhanced Linux Policy

DESCRIPTION

SELinux supports Roles Based Access Control (RBAC), some Linux roles are login roles, while other roles need to be transition into.

Note: Examples in this man page will use the staff_u SELinux user.

Non login roles are usually used for administrative tasks. For example, tasks that require root privileges. Roles control which types a user can run processes with. Roles often have default types assigned to them.

The default type for the nx_server_r role is nx_server_t.

The newrole program to transition directly to this role.

newrole -r nx_server_r -t nx_server_t

sudo is the preferred method to do transition from one role to another. You setup sudo to transition to nx_server_r by adding a similar line to the /etc/sudoers file.

USERNAME ALL=(ALL) ROLE=nx_server_r TYPE=nx_server_t COMMAND

sudo will run COMMAND as staff_u:nx_server_r:nx_server_t:LEVEL

When using a non login role, you need to setup SELinux so that your SELinux user can reach nx_server_r role.

Execute the following to see all of the assigned SELinux roles:

semanage user -l

You need to add nx_server_r to the staff_u user. You could setup the staff_u user to be able to use the nx_server_r role with a command like:

$ semanage user -m -R 'staff_r system_r nx_server_r' staff_u

BOOLEANS

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nx_server policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run nx_server with the tightest access possible.

If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1

If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

COMMANDS

semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.

semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.

semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.

semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
