seusers - The SELinux GNU/Linux user to SELinux user mapping configu‐ ration file
The seusers file contains a list GNU/Linux user to SELinux user mapping for use by SELinux-aware login applications such as PAM(8). selinux_usersconf_path(3) will return the active policy path to this file. The default SELinux users mapping file is located at: /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/seusers Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)). getseuserbyname(3) reads this file to map a GNU/Linux user or group to an SELinux user.
Each line of the seusers configuration file consists of the following: [%group_id]|[user_id]:seuser_id[:range] Where: group_id|user_id The GNU/Linux user id, or if preceded by the percentage (%) symbol, then a GNU/Linux group id. An optional entry set to __default__ can be provided as a fall back if required. seuser_id The SELinux user identity. range The optional level or range for an MLS/MCS policy.
