Right, this is definitely the best attitude. More configuration with SELinux in interesting setups is probably unavoidable: the whole point is that you tell the system precisely what programs should and should not be allowed to do so it can enforce that. Administering servers always involves administration, hopefully SELinux and writing policy will come to be accepted as just one of those things admins should know in future, in much the same way that you're supposed to know how to edit httpd.conf > I've been thinking recently about how to make this easier. GUI tools would be a good start. Apache in general needs better GUI tools I think ... one of the areas IIS tends to whip Apache is on small-scale intranet deployments where the person running the web server is computer-literate but not a guru and the IIS config gui is a strength. Got to stay positive with this! :) thanks -mike
