mdm – MDM Display Manager Synopsis mdm Description mdm is the equivalent of xdm(1x) or wdm(1x), but uses the GNOME libraries to provide a GNOME look-and-feel. It provides the GNOME equivalent of a “login:” prompt. mdm reads /etc/mdm/mdm.conf for its configuration. For each local display, mdm starts an X server and runs mdmlogin(8x) on that…
mdadm_selinux – Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mdadm processes Description Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mdadm processes via flexible mandatory access control. The mdadm processes execute with the mdadm_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. For example: ps -eZ | grep…
mdadm – manage MD devices aka Linux Software RAID Synopsis mdadm [mode] <raiddevice> [options] <component-devices> Description RAID devices are virtual devices created from two or more real block devices. This allows multiple devices (typically disk drives or partitions thereof) to be combined into a single device to hold (for example) a single filesystem. Some RAID…
md-mx-ctrl – Control mimedefang-multiplexor Synopsis md-mx-ctrl [options] command Description md-mx-ctrl is a command-line tool for communicating with mimedefang-multiplexor(8). Options -h Displays usage information. -s path Specifies the path to the mimedefang-multiplexor socket. If not specified, defaults to /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang-multiplexor.sock. -i This flag causes md-mx-ctrl to sit in a loop, reading commands on standard input and printing…
mcstransd – MCS (Multiple Category System) daemon. Translates SELinux MCS/MLS labels to human readable form. Synopsis mcstransd Description This manual page describes the mcstransd program. This daemon reads /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/setrans.conf and /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/secolors.conf configuration files, and communicates with libselinux via a socket in /var/run/setrans. It also watches for files created in /var/run/setrans and uses the contents of…
mcs – Multi-Category System Description MCS (Multiple Category System) allows users to label files on their system within administrator defined categories. It then uses SELinux Mandatory Access Control to protect those files. MCS is a discretionary model to allow users to mark their data with additional tags that further restrict access. The only mandatory aspect…
mcelog_selinux – Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mcelog processes Description Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mcelog processes via flexible mandatory access control. The mcelog processes execute with the mcelog_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. For example: ps -eZ | grep…
mcelog – Decode kernel machine check log on x86 machines Synopsis mcelog [options] [device] mcelog [options] –daemon mcelog [options] –client mcelog [options] –ascii mcelog [options] –is-cpu-supported mcelog –version Description X86 CPUs report errors detected by the CPU as machine check events (MCEs). These can be data corruption detected in the CPU caches, in main memory…
mce-inject – Inject machine checks into x86 kernel for testing Synopsis mce-inject mce-file1 … mce-inject < mce-file Description mce-inject allows to inject machine checks in a running x86 Linux kernel. machine checks are internal CPU errors. This tool is intended to test the machine check handling code. The injection only happens on the software level…
