Just curious as all I ever see it do is break stuff from working. Is it for anything special?
I usually put selinux=0 in the grub.conf file otherwise stuff like samba, apache, etc wont work.
For example, made apache's default directory /data/www and it errored out "that is not a directory" even though it was. I put selinux=0, reboot, it works. The first time I ran into selinux I spent weeks trying to troubleshoot errors that were false. Samba is usually the one that takes the biggest hit.
Is there specialized applications where selinux actually can be left on? I know it's for security but completly disabling a server application is as good as unplugging the server. Security still has to be functional.
