I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why my Nagios install wasn't working on CentOS 4.5 (I'm used to Debian), and so I disabled SELinux and everything magically started working.

Is this a good long term idea? Or is there a better way of doing things?

Hi There,

If your machine is purely a server and has no local accounts for ordinary users, you can implement an effective sercurity policy using appropriate partitioning, fstab entries, wrapper and firewall configuration without the baggage of SElinux.

Save yourself the headache and turn it off!

Pete
