runcon(1)



NAME

   runcon - run command with specified security context

SYNOPSIS

   runcon CONTEXT COMMAND [args]
   runcon [ -c ] [-u USER] [-r ROLE] [-t TYPE] [-l RANGE] COMMAND [args]

DESCRIPTION

   Run  COMMAND  with  completely-specified  CONTEXT,  or  with current or
   transitioned security context modified by one or more of  LEVEL,  ROLE,
   TYPE, and USER.

   If  none  of -c, -t, -u, -r, or -l, is specified, the first argument is
   used as the complete context.  Any additional arguments  after  COMMAND
   are interpreted as arguments to the command.

   Note  that  only  carefully-chosen  contexts are likely to successfully
   run.

   Run a program in a different SELinux security  context.   With  neither
   CONTEXT nor COMMAND, print the current security context.

   Mandatory  arguments  to  long  options are mandatory for short options
   too.
