matchpathcon(8)	      SELinux Command Line documentation       matchpathcon(8)

NAME
       matchpathcon  - get the default SELinux security context for the speci‐
       fied path from the file contexts configuration.

SYNOPSIS
       matchpathcon [-V] [-N] [-n]  [-f	 file_contexts_file  ]	[-p  prefix  ]
       filepath...

DESCRIPTION
       matchpathcon queries the system policy and outputs the default security
       context associated with the filepath.

       Note: Identical paths can have different security  contexts,  depending
       on the file type. (regular file, directory, link file, char file ...)

       matchpathcon  will also take the file type into consideration in deter‐
       mining the default security context if the file exists.	 If  the  file
       does not exist, no file type matching will occur.

OPTIONS
       -n Do not display path.

       -N Do not use translations.

       -f file_context_file Use alternate file_context file

       -p prefix Use prefix to speed translations

       -V Verify file context on disk matches defaults
