fedora: disable selinux

selinux stands for security-enhanced linux. it’s probably too secured and caused a lot of file errors. i always turn it off.

the following applies to fedora core 10. it’s probably more or less the same for previous versions or other linux platforms.

to disable selinux at command prompt, run:

$ setenforce 0

to disable permanently, ie after reboot, edit /etc/selinux/config and change:

SELINUX=disabled
