No worries

They were split on whether Suse, Debian, Gentoo, or cough FreeBSD was the better next step from RH9. (Getting a couple of Debian and FreeBSD guys into a "discussion" is almost as much fun as an emacs vs. vi argument.) Then we began updating our work boxes from RH9 to FC3 and that settled it. I went back and looked to see how I could have missed any mention of SELinux. It's not mentioned in either of the two most recent books I have on hand, ([link\|http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxckbk/\|Linux Cookbook] and [link\|http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxsvrhack/\|Linux Server Hacks]), nor in [link\|http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/runux4/\|Running Linux], though mine is 2nd edition, and should probably get recycled to recover the shelf space. SELinux is mentioned in the [link\|http://www.fedorafaq.org/\|Unofficial Fedora FAQ], (the official source for "how do I play my MP3?" questions), but in a dismissive way in a footnote. Once you know what word to search on, though, there's plenty of info available. Go figure.

I know how you got here, but thanks for getting involved here. I hope you'll find we are a buncha wierd assholes that actually discuss things that are interestig. You discover quickly whom the "usual suspects" are as well as the ones to steer clear of... or to engage for enjoyment (fun to pick on, I should say). But still watch out for those ones, as they usually pack a good punch at sometime in the foray. Anywho, here is hoping you stick to the wall the pasta tested on. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* [link\|http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=134485&cid=11233230\|"Microsoft Security" is an even better oxymoron than "Military Intelligence"] No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link\|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp\|source]
