  • In this video I am going to have a first look at SELinux and how it works. Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a Linux kernel security module that provides a mechanism for supporting access control security policies, including mandatory access controls. You will find preinstalled in Fedora, CentOS and RHEL.

    Great timing, we have a project at work running RHEL, so this is a great refresher as I haven't used RHEL or CentOS regularly in over two years. Great content. Thanks.

    Such a great video. Please make more videos on SELinux. I tried my hand at Fedora and every time i tried to setup something the instructions were mostly "just set SELinux to permissive". I'd like to know more to take care of things myself without having to disable it. More videos on this subject would be very welcome.

    Thanks! I was wanting a simple explanation of this. I became aware of SELinux because I saw it on Android when managing the system with root access. Idk why SELinux is on Android from Android 5.x
    Looking forward to the apparmor video as I have it on my system but I still don't know how to use it that well but wanted some security layer.

    Hey Ermano thanks for making the video on request. But I have a question
    1. Why doesn't other distros ship it by default if this is so useful especially arch,debian and ubuntu if it can provide extra layer of security ?
    2. Is it really that useful for a normal user I can see this is really useful in devs environment since security will be main concern for every company but I think there is no harm in implementing this for extra layer of security in other distros ?
    3. Other distros like debian, arch having larger community and ubuntu having a corporate backing isnt this useful if they implement this by default since ubuntu based distros is used by many especially by web devs ?
    BTW DistroTube mentioned your channel along with others channel that he watches today on his channel.
    Its good to see linux community tied together like this and mentioning others channel so that more people will know about linux and can get content if it is not covered by the other. Thanks Ermano for making this video

    • @eflinux
      @eflinux  Před 3 lety +2

      I can't really say why other distros don't have SELinux installed. Ubuntu comes with Apparmor (which is another tool for M.A.C) preinstalled, which is also a great tool, although, if I remember correctly, it is disabled by default. Whether you use SELinux or Apparmor , system security is definitely going to benefit from it, but again, as to why this is not standard I really can't say. I've seen DT video this morning and answered him in the comments and I greatly appreciated what he did. As you say, I am all for the Linux community being together :)

    I'd really like to see a small guide on setting up zRam or zSwap in an arch system. This seems especially interesting to me since fedora is now doing this out of the box. There is no guide on youtube for arch.

    The reason it isn't default is choice and it is quite easy to implement selinux or apparmor in archlinux or anyother linux or unix distribution.

    Currently, I am testing SELinux on an Ubuntu 22.04.4 virtual machine & when I enable enforcing, mode the network gets turned off. Funny enough, when I enabled permissive mode, the network is restored. Am I configuring it wrong?

    Hi ermano. Can you make a video about installing SELinux on Archlinux? Today I tried to install SELinux on Archlinux. Everything was fine. But the polkit service failed. And I could not install it. I would be grateful if you post a video about this. Thanks :)

    • @eflinux
      @eflinux  Před 3 lety +4

      That is why I didn’t do any video until now. The policy module is still not complete for Arch and it causes problems. I’ll explore this more when things will be a little more stable.

    Why SELinux on Fedora and not Archlinux?

    • @eflinux
      @eflinux  Před 3 lety +2

      So, here I wanted to give an overview of SELinux. To implement that on Arch is fairly complex and some aspects and features are not yet available on Arch, according to the wiki.
