Thanks much for all your replies.

I did what you recommended and at the end of it all I rebooted with

   grub parameters 'selinux=1 enforcing=1'

It does seem to be working and securely (I cannot telnet in from another
system and my sound does not work ..)

[I really shouldn't mention telnet on this list..]

----- I do have a few questions though - some may be OT -----

Yum must have a different header cache as the command line below refetched
a lot of header files. The sources file for my up2date contains 'yum' lines
- why is it not the same cache.

[root@hoho2 user1]# yum install setools*

I did it again with the '-t' option - got less output lines, but the Cannot
find lines were still there.

Setools is installed on my system though. (Maybe the yum default sources
file is not pointed correctly?)

  [root@hoho2 user1]# rpm -q -i setools | more
  Name        : setools                      Relocations: /usr

Then I did:

  fixfiles relabel

One supposes (me at least) that once 'fixfiles relabel' has been run, then
a second run of that program will not find any files to fix.

This was not the case for me.  I actually did 'fixfiles relabel' three
times and even on the last one I got diagnostic output.

A typical bunch of diagnostics looked like this:

  Cleaning out /tmp
  /usr/sbin/setfiles:  conflicting specifications for
  /lib/modules/2.6.3-2.1.253.2.1custom/modules.dep and
  /lib/modules/2.6.5-1.327/build/include/config/MARKER, using
  system_u:object_r:modules_dep_t.

  /usr/sbin/setfiles:  conflicting specifications for
  /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/ooo-build-1.1.53pre/build/OOO_1_1_1/setup2/
  unxlngi4.pro/bin/tplx64533.res and
  /var/tmp/openoffice.org-1.1.1-root/usr/lib/ooo-1.1/program/
  resource/tplx64533.res, using system_u:object_r:src_t.

  /usr/sbin/setfiles:  conflicting specifications for
  /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/ooo-build-1.1.53pre/build/OOO_1_1_1/
  setup2/unxlngi4.pro/bin/tplx64590.res and
  /var/tmp/openoffice.org-1.1.1-root/usr/lib/ooo-1.1/program/resource/
  tplx64590.res, using system_u:object_r:src_t.

There is a pattern here, but I can't express it in fixable terms.

Seems to be a problem with the sound card stuff - even though it is not
enforcing at the moment. It worked before SELinux.

  Last login: Tue May  4 20:27:17 from TZ
  [user1@hoho2 user1]$

Lots of diagnostic messages between the login: and the 'user1' response!!

--- Note that it really is enforcing ---

  [user1@hoho2 user1]$ od -c /selinux/enforce
  0000000   1
  0000001
  [user1@hoho2 user1]$

--- However the /etc/sysconfig/selinux file still says 'disabled'

  [root@hoho2 user1]# cat /etc/sysconfig/selinux
  # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
  # SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
  #       enforcinfg - SELinux security policy is enforced.
  #       permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
  #       disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
  SELINUX=disabled
  [root@hoho2 user1]# date
  Tue May  4 20:35:31 CDT 2004
  [root@hoho2 user1]#

(Note typo in the enforcing line of this file)

Maybe the grub kernel line overrides whatever is in this file? Perhaps the
information in this file controls the boot situation when there is no
additional boot grub parameter?

Here is a try at rsync to a machine without SELinux

  [root@hoho2 user1]# vim nextboot.bug
  [root@hoho2 user1]# rsync nextboot.bug hoho0:/home/bobg
  root@hoho0's password:
  Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
  Server is very old version of rsync, upgrade recommended.
  [root@hoho2 user1]#

It seems to say that it has faked it, but no file was transfered.

up2date does not work with enforcing=1

I noticed that there were a bunch more update files available, so I
installed all (including the 349 kernel), and then rebooted with enforcing=1

It actually does boot - and I can also 'su'
