If you are just looking to get stuff done, look in the second part of the book. Best yet, flip to the Index and look under "how to". For learning about SELinux, the "what is/what are" Index entries are numerous and useful. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/generated-index.html For developers (hey, now I'm on-topic!), the first part that explains about SELinux and how it works is ... well, it is what it is. I did the best I could to make sense out of it for you all. ;-) I encourage you to give the PDF a try. I pored over it, page by page, to make sure that it prints out without content loss or nasty, ugly formatting. If you don't want to print it yourself, Cafepress or Kinkos is quite capable. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/pdf/rhel-selg-en.pdf > http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=br_ss_hs/103-0884455-3434219?search-alias=aps&keywords=selinux > The only one there remotely useful is the upcoming SELinux by Example [1], authored by people who know what they are talking about. Aug. 2006 is the publication date on Amazon. The ORA book was based on FC 2 and a waaaaaay older framework in the kernel. - Karsten [1] http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0131963694/sr=8-6/qid=1140789393/ref=sr_1_6/103-8886514-7165421?%5Fencoding=UTF8 -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Content Services Fedora Documentation Project http://www.redhat.com/docs http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject
