semanage is used to configure certain elements of SELinux policy
without requiring modification to or recompilation from policy
sources. semanage login controls the mapping between a Linux User
and the SELinux User. It can be used to turn on confined users.
For example you could define that a particular user or group of
users will login to a system as the user_u user. Prefix the group
name with a '%' sign to indicate a group name.
