How do I switch off SELinux
go to /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled
on your next reboot it'll be off.
and what's the
criteria for judging whether I need it or not?
at the bare minimum :
7% performance overhead(plus training incompetent adimins if you have any)
v/s
Better access control
SELinux is for highly critical security needs. Most people don't need it on desktop machines. But it is good thing to learn. http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SELinux
Positively Brilliant answer :P
Only a little more clarity would have helped.
If I remember correctly MS was against SE(Security-Enhanced) being added to linux.
and where did you get this from? Please do share it with the rest of us.
