7.3.5. Manual Pages for Services

The manual pages for services contain valuable information about what file types should be for what situations, and what Booleans are available. This information may be in the standard manual page, or manual page with selinux_ prepended or appended to it.

For example, the httpd_selinux(8) manual page has information about which types to use in which situations, as well as Booleans to allow scripts, sharing files, accessing directories inside user home directories, and so on. Other manual pages with SELinux information for services include:

samba_selinux(8).
nfs_selinux(8). By default, NFS can not export any file systems. To allow NFS to export file systems, Booleans such as nfs_export_all_ro or nfs_export_all_rw turned on. Refer to the nfs_selinux(8) manual page for details on turning these Booleans on.
named(8) (see the Red Hat SELinux BIND Security Profile section) and named_selinux(8).
