 Tony and Jim,

 sestatus reports disabled. Thanks for the help on the test, Jim.


Okay, so here's the deal. The default aide.conf checks the selinux
bits. If you need to have selinux off (not really recommended, but
it's your box) and you still want aide to watch over your files, you
need to remove the selinux requirements from /etc/aide.conf.   I've
gone ahead and done up a config file which is identical to the default
with selinux bits removed. Grab the file from
http://www.bofh-hunter.com/downloads/aide.conf   or use the diff below
against the default config:

Jim,

I tried the new config file - the downloaded one - and it still gives me the errors. I then went through and removed the xattr options on all of them with no luck still. I have not ran the --check yet.

OK, so what if I enable permissive mode just to get the extra attributes on all the files, and do all the stuff needed to relabel the files. Will I see any difference in what I have other than the extended attributes. Since this server will go full time production real soon, I don't want to cause any surprises for me or the users, and I don't have the time to learn selinux admin and configuration in a short time either. I know, that sounds lazy, but I just have a full plate at the moment, sorry.

Thanks for all your time. I really do appreciated the fact you're educating me.

steve
