NAME         top

       semanage-login - SELinux Policy Management linux user to SELinux
       User mapping tool

SYNOPSIS         top

       semanage login [-h] [-n] [-N] [-S STORE] [ --add -s SEUSER -r
       RANGE LOGIN | --delete LOGIN | --deleteall | --extract | --list
       [-C] | --modify -s SEUSER -r RANGE LOGIN ]

DESCRIPTION         top

       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.
