Currently, during the install of FC3 test, SElinux is enabled by default, but all you have to do is disable it with a drop down box. I can't confirm that this behavior will stay, but it seems likely. > anyone have any thoughts about migrating to selinux issues? or pointers > to some information specific to the migration, preparing for it, or > perhaps tutorials for how to deal with it once it's in place? I'm running SELinux on my test installs and haven't really noticed it. If you want some good info, go to the the Fedora web site <fedora.redhat.com> then click on "Docs" then click on "SELinux FAQ." It's not really that scary, and you can always run it in "permissive" mode, which is sort of like a dry run. It doesn't actually do anything, but it tells you what it would do if active.
