I've never tried this sort of thing, but SELINUX would seem |

to be capable of what you seek and so much more. |

I'd look for existing rules-set (policy) that are similar for |
| 19 |
your goals. Sure, it's a bit of overkill but it should do everything |
| 20 |
you want, with as fine-grained control as you need.... |
