DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the restorecon program.

This  program  is  primarily used to set the security context (extended
attributes) on one or more files.

policy,  or  with the -n option it can just check whether the file con-
texts are all as you expect.

tion. Use - for stdin.

tory.)

-n     don't change any file labels.

-o outfilename
save list of files with incorrect context in outfilename.

-v     show changes in file labels.

-vv    show changes in file labels, if type, role, or user  are  chang-
ing.

-F     Force  reset  of  context to match file_context for customizable
files, or the user section, if it has changed.
