(Presuming that no-one's goofed... It's never a good idea to place absolute trust in something.) Permissive does what it says, it permits it. It offers you no protection, lets you do what you tried to, but gives you a report about it. Which would then allow you to design custom rules, or modify your software not to do things it shouldn't, if you understood such things. Off, does nothing at all. If you want it, use enforcing. If you're programming or going to fix things, you'd probably want it on, but would switch to permissive while fixing things up. If you don't want it, turn it off. -- (Currently running FC4, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
