SELinux Time Change Bug

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I reported it, but SELinux has found a new way to screw up /rant. After today's SELinux update, I found the timezone was changed from EDT to UTC. I attempted to use the KDE Date & Time module to change it back to EDT, but SELinux wouldn't permit it. I went through the trouble-shooting instructions, and that let me change the time zone back to UTC, but the time was not automatically corrected to EDT, even though it was labeled that way. Setting SELinux to permissive mode fails to correct the problem; the "Error setting time zone" box still appears and now the "Unable (HowTos)

Debian: SELinux not enabled 35 weeks 1 day ago

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.

selinux was in permissive mode in my case: # sestatus SELinux status: enabled SELinuxfs mount: /selinux Current mode... [by johnsmith57]

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 set selinux to permissive in the config file.

Setting up SELinux 1 year 46 weeks ago

I'm using the Testing repositories, and I'm trying to configure SELinux. I found a guide for setting it up in Debian HERE, and I've edited all the appropriate config files, but I have a big problem. When I try to install selinux-policy-default, Apt wants to remove EVERYTHING that makes the system usable, including all kernels, ALSA, and all of the Xorg drivers.

On a recent install I cannot get system-config-selinux to start, it gives :

Code: Traceback (most recent call last):   File "/usr/share/system-config-selinux/system-config-selinux.py", line 57, in <module>     gnome.program_init("SELinux Management Tool", "5") AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'program_init' when started

I have a problem with SELinux!

I have installed git on Red Hat Enterprise 6 with AD group control and SSL Cert . Everything works fine if I do setenforce 0 ( set SELinux in detection only mode ) or if I do semanage permissive -a httpd_t (Set httpd_t in detection only mode)

I do not want to use this on my git production server.

I need some help with chcon 3 years 30 weeks ago

I keep getting SELinux error messages that state "SELinux is preventing samba (/usr/sbin/smbd) "search" to / (fusefs_t)." and the like, seems that pretty much everything I do generates some kind of error. I currently have SELinux set to permissive but I don't want to continue to run that way.

Since my new install of F12KDE, I have been getting various SELinux errors. I will attempt to address them, and resolve them, one-by-one.
