Do you have any semanage login mapping for sftpuser or is it just using the __default__ entry? (what does semanage login -l show) How was sftpuser created? You could add the debug option on the pam_selinux.so line to try to get more information. You could run selinuxdefcon to query what context would be used for that user, e.g. selinuxdefcon sftpuser system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0.c0123 > > On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 8:54 PM, Stephen Smalley <sds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > On Tue, 2017-12-12 at 23:47 -0500, Aman Sharma wrote: > > > Hi All, > > > > > > just wanted to know the meaning of line session required > > > pam_selinux.so open env_params added in /etc/pam.d/sshd file. > > > Actually I am facing one issue related to this.
