service_seusers - The SELinux GNU/Linux user and service to SELinux user mapping configuration files
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:
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.
Each line within the username file is formatted as follows with each component separated by a colon:
Where:
Example 1 - for the 'root' user:
Example 2 - for GNU/Linux user 'rch':
selinux(8), PAM(8), selinux_policy_root(3), getseuser(3), selinux_config(5)
