You aren't by any chance using an initramfs, are you? |

Is SELinux indeed disabled, or does it only "look" like so? |

An easy way to test is when you run in strict policy (or mcs/mls without |
| 27 |
unconfined domains) and you're in the sysadm_t domain. Then try reading |
| 28 |
/etc/shadow: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
hpl ~ # id |
| 31 |
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) |
| 32 |
groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel),11(floppy),20(dialout),26(tape),27(video) |
| 33 |
context=staff_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
hpl ~ # cat /etc/shadow |
| 36 |
cat: /etc/shadow: Permission denied |
