CentOS and SELinux

[Mike Kercher]

It's not that SELinux is bad, per se.  SELinux can just be difficult to
figure out for the uninitiated.  You have the option of enabling SELinux in
a WARN mode.  If it were me, I'd install CentOS 4 with SELinux on a test box
and learn all the tricks before lighting the fire on a production machine
and spending many late nights behind a keyboard.

Evening guys,

The issue was raised concerning SELinux, could someone please shed some
light on why SELinux is bad and what problems it might pose.

TIA
