RE: MLS telnet question

Thanks,

	So one more question if you please...
	I seem to recall reading something to the effect of Labeled IPSEC only working between two or more Linux/SELinux systems.

	Can Labeled IPSEC be configured to apply static labels to incoming packets? 

Thanks,
Mike Benedict

While the RHEL5.x kernels have NetLabel support, it is very basic as it predates most of the labeled networking improvements that have been made in the past years.  Unfortunately, this means that the fallback/static peer label feature is not part of RHEL5.

You'll need to be more specific about what you mean by "impact".

Will NetLabel affect how you bind the multiple SSH daemons?  No.  Will NetLabel affect how the SSH daemons are labeled?  No.  Will NetLabel allow you to assign peer labels to incoming SSH traffic?  Yes.  Will this mean I'll need to change my SELinux policy to add the necessary controls?  It depends.
