NAME¶
default_type - The SELinux default type configuration fileDESCRIPTION¶
The default_type file contains entries that allow SELinux-aware applications such as newrole(1) to select a default type for a role if one is not supplied. selinux_default_type_path(3) will return the active policy path to this file. The default, default type file is:/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/default_type
Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file
config (see selinux_config(5)).
get_default_type(3) reads this file to determine a type for the active
policy.
FILE FORMAT¶
Each line within the default_type file is formatted with role: type entries where:role
The SELinux role.

The domain type that is returned for this role.
