# matchpathcon
> Lookup the persistent SELinux security context setting of a path.

- Lookup the persistent security context setting of an absolute path:
`matchpathcon /{{path/to/file}}`
- Restrict lookup to settings on a specific file type:
`matchpathcon -m {{file|dir|pipe|chr_file|blk_file|lnk_file|sock_file}} /{{path/to/file}}`
- [V]erify that the persistent and current security context of a path agree:
`matchpathcon -V /{{path/to/file}}`
