this is my first topic
good afternoon Mageia community

I'm having a great job to be able to install SELinux on Mageia

someone please help me

I installed the following packages but ............

[root @ localhost acpica] # urpmi selinux it
Package libselinux1-2.0.78-3.mga1.i586, lib64selinux1-2.0.78-3.mga1.x86_64 are already installed
[root @ localhost acpica] #

I'm just showing that they are installed!

but I do not think that's it!!

I think I have to install the kernel selinux

I downloaded here

http://www.nsa.gov/research/selinux/index.shtml


as I will install the same?

I just find how to install kernel in Debian, etc. ........


these are the files SELinux kernel

[root@localhost linux-3.5.5]# d
arch/ Documentation/ init/ lib/ README sound/
block/ drivers/ ipc/ MAINTAINERS REPORTING-BUGS tools/
COPYING firmware/ Kbuild Makefile samples/ usr/
CREDITS fs/ Kconfig* mm/ scripts/ virt/
crypto/ include/ kernel/ net/ security/
[root@localhost linux-3.5.5]# ^C
[root@localhost linux-3.5.5]#

can anyone tell me what I have to have installed on my mageia to run SELinux? and some tips on how to install this kernel?

that is not found in uncle google how to install SELinux on Mageia!!

thanks to all

any hint will be greatly appreciated

i don't recommend you SELinux, the NSA have nothing to do with Open-Source systems...
if you want to install it any way you have add selinux package and enable it on the boot files
you don't need to replace the kernel
