[DSE-Dev] SELinux in Debian

[Christian Göttsche]

Did you try to install the selinux-policy-default package from stretch
or testing? (Are there any errors?)

SELinux needs a policy to be enabled, otherwise you can try the
upstream reference policy

> Hi all,
> Ive been struggling with this for over a week now :(
> 2 questions:
> 1) Is SELinux supported on Debian GNU/Linux 8.7 (jessie) ?
> With custom 3.16.43 Kernel (compiled with SELinux support):
> Linux debian 3.16.43custom #34 SMP Mon May 15 20:55:00 EDT 2017 i686
> GNU/Linux
>
> 2) If so, how to enable some example policy?
> I am trying to use the instructions from here
> (https://wiki.debian.org/SELinux/Setup)
> The problem is that selinux-policy-default is not part of debian packages
> sine it failed some tests... Any instructions I tried to install the package
> are not working... Although the installation finishes, SELinux is not
> acivated on startup....
>
>
> Any advice/help is appreciated... Even a 'Yes'/'No' answer from someone who
> has tried that...
>
> Additional info:
> I see in the SELinux is initialized in the kernel log, but no policy is
> loaded and SELinux is disabled when running "sestatus"

> Thanks, Lev
