SELINUX is like a virus to me, no matter what you do SELINUX is going to get into you computer.The trouble I am having is removing it. There are so many packages depending on SELINUX, o... [by Agron]
I have been using Fedora for about two years. I love it except one thing: I can not get used to SELinux. SELinux in Fedora evolves rapidly and it is not uncommon that an updated SELinux breaks up other things. So here is my question: is it really useful for a desktop which doesn't have a whole bunches of services running except OpenSSH? I am deciding whether to disable SELinux for good.
Hi all, i came across the following method of how to permanently disabling selinux and it's notifications. Although changing enforcement from the gui into permissive mode does most of the job, the notifications still pop-up when some applications are started.
So to disable it do the following:
open terminal as root and execute:
I want to standardize my company on CentOS. Previously they used SL 6.2. I also want to disable SELinux until it is adopted better. I plan to standup the server and migrate the conf files over for the necessary services. Is there any implications given the SELinux and SL that I need to be aware of when migrating? Also this will probably be a physical to virtual migration.
I set selinux to permissive in the config file.
I still have this lingering problem and cannot use SELinux I recently installed Fedora 18, however I cannot see the SELinux icon on the application desktop so therefore I cannot make all the adjustments I want.
There is also no icon for the SELinux manager Icons so I can turn on certain Security Measures or disable them.
Would appreciate any help
Many Thanks

I have been using Fedora since fc17, and selinux has been giving me errors using fprintd, printer and other pre-installed applications. I have always depended upon selinux for troubleshooting purposes. I have recently upgraded to Fedora 18, and have notice no selinux alerts at all. I have checked to ensure that selinux is on and working properly, and it appears to be. With that said...
I'm trying to setup SELinux on Debian 6 according to (the instructions reported on the Debian wiki).
I've run this commands:
apt-get install selinux-basics selinux-policy-default
selinux-activate
After reboot, the system should have taken a while to label the filesystems on boot and then rebooted a second time when that was complete.
I'm following the Debian SELinux setup guide with my Linux Mint Debian Edition system. I installed the necessary packages:
sudo aptitude install selinux-basics selinux-policy-default selinux-utils policycoreutils
Activated SELinux and rebooted twice:
sudo selinux-activate
Checked the installation.
