Booleans are part of what makes up an SELinux policy, and each Boolean represents a binary choice. In SELinux policies, a Boolean either allows something or it prohibits something. To see all Booleans on your system, run the getsebool -a command. (It's a long list, so I'll only show partial output here.):

[donnie@localhost ~]$ getsebool -a
abrt_anon_write --> off
abrt_handle_event --> off
abrt_upload_watch_anon_write --> on
antivirus_can_scan_system --> off
antivirus_use_jit --> off
auditadm_exec_content --> on
. . .
. . .
zarafa_setrlimit --> off
zebra_write_config --> off
zoneminder_anon_write --> off
zoneminder_run_sudo --> off
[donnie@localhost ~]$

To view more than one Boolean, the -a switch is mandatory. If you just happen to know the name of the Boolean that you want to see, leave the -a out and list it. In keeping with the Apache web server theme that we've had going, let's see whether we're allowing Apache to access files in users' home directories:

[donnie@localhost html]$ getsebool httpd_enable_homedirs
httpd_enable_homedirs --> off
[donnie@localhost html]$

The fact that this Boolean is off means that the Apache server daemon isn't allowed to access any content within the users' home directories. This is an important protection, and you really don't want to change it. Instead, just put web content files elsewhere so that you don't have to change this Boolean.

Most likely, you'll rarely want to look at the entire list, and you likely won't know the name of the specific Boolean that you want to see. Rather, you'll probably want to filter the output through grep in order to look at just certain things. For example, to see all of the Booleans that affect a web server, do this:

[donnie@localhost html]$ getsebool -a | grep 'http'
httpd_anon_write --> off
httpd_builtin_scripting --> on
httpd_can_check_spam --> off
httpd_can_connect_ftp --> off
httpd_can_connect_ldap --> off
. . .
. . .
httpd_use_nfs --> off
httpd_use_openstack --> off
httpd_use_sasl --> off
httpd_verify_dns --> off
named_tcp_bind_http_port --> off
prosody_bind_http_port --> off
[donnie@localhost html]$

It's also a rather long list, but scroll down a little and you'll find the Boolean that you seek.
