SELinux is available in all 2.6 kernels. To use Gentoo with Xen and |
| 36 |
SELinux, I had to switch to the SELinux 2006.1 profile, which is still |
| 37 |
in testing. This is the first Gentoo with support for modular SELinux |
| 38 |
reference policy, which has a policy module for Xen. The SELinux |
| 39 |
upgrade, however, requires glibc 2.4 which is not yet available for |
| 40 |
hardened gcc. |
| 41 |

Info on migrating Gentoo to SELinux 2006.1, as well as modifying a |
| 43 |
kernel for use with SELinux is available here: |

| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Use the latest xen-sources kernel and configure it for SELinux. Note |
| 47 |
that the Xen policy is not yet available in portage; I found it here: |

Good luck! |
