NAME

chcat - change file security category

SYNOPSIS

chcat CATEGORY FILE...
chcat -l CATEGORY USER...
chcat [[+|-]CATEGORY],...] FILE...
chcat -l [[+|-]CATEGORY],...] USER...
chcat [-d] FILE...
chcat -l [-d] USER...
chcat -L [-l] [ USER ... ]

Change/Remove the security CATEGORY for each FILE/USER.

Use +/- to add/remove categories from a FILE/USER.

Note: When removing a category you must specify ’--’ on the command line before using the -Category syntax. This tells the command that you have finished entering options and are now specifying a category name instead.

-d delete the category from each FILE/USER.
-L list available categories.
-l Tells chcat to operate on users instead of files.

SEE ALSO

When operating on files this script wraps the chcon command.
