Subject: [gentoo-hardened] NSA SELinux 1.4 release
Date: Sun, 07 Dec 2003 21:18:58
Message-Id: 1070853540.13363.9.camel@chris.pebenito.net
1 If haven't synced in the last day or so, the NSA put out a new release.
2 It has a tool, which is oft requested. Policycoreutils 1.4 now has the
3 audit2allow tool, which will spit out SELinux policy from denials in
4 dmesg, or logs. Just be careful when using it; denials aren't always
5 because of policy shortcomings :)
