## NAME

seunshare - Run cmd with alternate homedir, tmpdir and/or SELinux context

## SYNOPSIS

**seunshare** \[ -v \] \[ -C \] \[ -k \] \[ -t tmpdir \] \[ -h homedir \] \[ -Z context \] -- executable \[args\]\

## DESCRIPTION

Run the *executable* within the specified context, using the alternate home directory and /tmp directory.  The seunshare command unshares from the default namespace, then mounts the specified homedir and tmpdir over the default homedir and /tmp. Finally it tells the kernel to execute the application under the specified SELinux context.

- **-h homedir**

- **-t tmpdir**

  **Use alternate temporary directory to mount on /tmp.  tmpdir must be owned by the user.**

- **-C --capabilities**

  Allow apps executed within the namespace to use capabilities.  Default is no capabilities.

- **-k --kill**

  Kill all processes with matching MCS level.

- **-Z context**

  **Use alternate SELinux context while running the executable.**
