.SH DESCRIPTION
|
2011-07-07 13:31:18 +00:00
|
|
|
.B genhomedircon
|
2012-08-22 10:48:30 +00:00
|
|
|
is a script that executes
|
|
|
|
|
.B semodule
|
|
|
|
|
to rebuild the currently active SELinux policy (without reloading it) and to create the
|
|
|
|
|
labels for each user home directory based on directory paths returned by calls to getpwent().

|
|
|
The latter functionality depends on the "usepasswd" parameter being set to "true" (default)
|
|
|
|
|
in /etc/selinux/semanage.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This script is usually executed by
|
|
|
|
|
.B semanage
|
|
|
|
|
although this default behavior can be optionally modified by setting to "true" the
|
|
|
|
|
"disable-genhomedircon" in /etc/selinux/semanage.conf.

Directories can be excluded from the list of home directories by the setting "ignoredirs"
|
|
|
|
|
in /etc/selinux/semanage.conf.
