Overview

Change the SELinux security context of each FILE to CONTEXT. With --reference, change the security context of each FILE to that of RFILE.

Options

--help: Print help information.

--dereference: Affect the referent of each symbolic link (this is the default), rather than the symbolic link itself.

-h, --no-dereference: Affect symbolic links instead of any referenced file.

--preserve-root: Fail to operate recursively on '/'.

--no-preserve-root: Do not treat '/' specially (the default).

--reference=RFILE: Use security context of RFILE, rather than specifying a CONTEXT value.

-u, --user=USER: Set user USER in the target security context.

-r, --role=ROLE: Set role ROLE in the target security context.

-t, --type=TYPE: Set type TYPE in the target security context.

-l, --range=RANGE: Set range RANGE in the target security context.

-R, --recursive: Operate on files and directories recursively.

-H: If a command line argument is a symbolic link to a directory, traverse it. Only valid when -R is specified.

-L: Traverse every symbolic link to a directory encountered. Only valid when -R is specified.

-P: Do not traverse any symbolic links (default). Only valid when -R is specified.
