NAME

       runcon - run command with specified security context

SYNOPSIS

       runcon CONTEXT COMMAND [args]
       runcon [ -c ] [-u USER] [-r ROLE] [-t TYPE] [-l RANGE] COMMAND [args]

DESCRIPTION

       Run  COMMAND  with  completely-specified  CONTEXT,  or  with current or
       transitioned security context modified by one or more of  LEVEL,  ROLE,
       TYPE, and USER.

       If  none  of -c, -t, -u, -r, or -l, is specified, the first argument is
       used as the complete context.  Any additional arguments  after  COMMAND
       are interpreted as arguments to the command.

       Note  that  only  carefully-chosen  contexts are likely to successfully
       run.

       Run a program in a different security context.   With  neither  CONTEXT
       nor COMMAND, print the current security context.
