SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) is a security feature that provides fine-grained control over access to resources in the Linux kernel. It is designed to enhance the security of a Linux system by enforcing mandatory access controls.
If you want to disable SELinux, you can do so by editing the /etc/selinux/config
file.
To disable SELinux, follow these steps:
/etc/selinux/config
file in a text editor.sudo vi /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=enforcing
SELINUX
variable to disabled
.SELINUX=disabled
Save the file and exit the text editor.
Reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
sudo reboot
After the system has rebooted, SELinux will be disabled.
It's important to note that disabling SELinux can compromise the security of your system. If you need to disable SELinux for a specific reason, it's recommended to consult with a security expert or seek guidance from the SELinux community.
