Turn off: disable selinux (Security-Enhanced Linux)

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:

  1. Open the /etc/selinux/config file in a text editor.
sudo vi /etc/selinux/config
  1. Locate the following line:
SELINUX=enforcing
  1. Change the value of the SELINUX variable to disabled.
SELINUX=disabled
  1. Save the file and exit the text editor.

  2. 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.
