I can verify that it so, because I have installed kernel 2.6.16.1 onto a FC3 machine and saw that selinux was included when I did make xconfig. Now I have to make a policy and check if all goes well. I know that FC3 is no longer supported except for fedora legacy, but I am also checking for other things. SELinux is in the kernel now, so its inclusion into more distributions is eminent unless the developers refuse to incorporate it. I'd have to say thumbs up to Fedora and to SuSE for paving the way for others to follow. http://selinux.sourceforge.net/devel/kernel.php3 Best Regards, Antonio __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
