# kerberos\_selinux(8)

Security Enhanced Linux Policy for Kerberos.

## NAME

kerberos\_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for Kerberos.

## DESCRIPTION

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the system via flexible mandatory access control. SELinux policy can be configured to deny Kerberos access to confined applications, since it requires daemons to be allowed greater access to certain secure files and additional access to the network.

## BOOLEANS

You must set the allow\_kerberos boolean to allow your system to work properly in a Kerberos environment.

```
setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
```

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