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

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

CONTEXT
	Complete security context
-t, --type=TYPE
	change current type to the specified type
-u, --user=USER
	change current user to the specified user
-r, --role=ROLE
	change current role to the specified role
-l, --range=RANGE
	change current level range to the specified range
--help	display this help and exit
--version
	output version information and exit

--	The -- flag indicates that runcon should stop processing command line arguments. Further arguments will be passed to COMMAND.

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.

The full documentation for runcon is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and runcon programs are properly installed at your site, the command

	info coreutils runcon

should give you access to the complete manual.
