The targeted policy works pretty well. The GUI interface for setting booleans isn't hard to use. If you install third party binaries that don't protect memory regions the way it is done in Fedora by default or if you run a web server you may need to use the chcon command to label some files to allow for elevated access. You can also use audit2allow to work around denials that shouldn't happen, but those should really get reported as bugs. Also coming in F8 is a way to have restricted accounts with restrictions enforced by SELinux policy. This makes it much safer to give out guest accounts on machines. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
