Hello Phil:
Setting the categories instead of adding them with the "+"
worked!
So it sounds like the chcat "+" option is not working as expected
on CentOS 6.9. Do you concur?
Thank you for your help Phil.
The following series of steps show that it now works as expected:

Hi Bill,
I saw in a previous post that you were using
CentOS 6.9 so this should work for you. It looks like the
login configuration is not quite right as both users are
showing SystemLow-SystemHigh when they logon.
Check the login config shows they only have
the categories they need, i.e. jack has c0 and mary has c1.
If they're not correct try setting the
categories rather than adding to them with a "+":
[root@centos6 ~]# chcat -l -- c0 jack
[root@centos6 ~]# chcat -l -- c1 mary
[root@centos6 ~]# semanage login -l
Login Name SELinux User

mary user_u
s0-s0:c1
root unconfined_u
s0-s0:c0.c1023
system_u system_u

Then with:
# ll -Z /usr/local/bin/
-rw-r--r--. root root
unconfined_u:object_r:bin_t:s0:c0 jack
-rw-r--r--. root root
unconfined_u:object_r:bin_t:s0:c1 mary

Thank you for the response. Your suggested fix resolved the

However, I am unable to get the desired effect.
I am not able to prevent a Linux user from running/accessing a

Why is Linux user 'bar' able to run/access Foo.jar when its

Following is how to create the Foo.jar file:
$ cat Foo.java
public class Foo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello Foo");
}
}
$ cat manifest.txt
Main-Class:
$ javac Foo.java
$ jar cvfe Foo.jar Foo Foo.class
added manifest
adding: Foo.class(in = 409) (out= 282)(deflated 31%)

Hi Bill,
I think this was my mistake in transcribing. The user_u
line after the "semanage user -m" command should be:
user_u user SystemLow
SystemLow-SystemHigh user_r
So the command should have been:
semanage user -m -r s0-s0:c0.c1023 user_u
Or even:
semanage user -m -r SystemLow-SystemHigh user_u
Appologies for that.

You probably have to extend the user definition to
include the categories you're using. As an example,
this gives all categories:
