Hello -

Our company is preparing to begin a project involving SELinux and I have been tasked to build a functioning SELinux box. However, I am new to Linux (and obviously, SELinux) and am having some trouble with the installation. I am installing on a RedHat 6.1 implementation, and get the error below while trying to do a 'make' on the modified kernel. Am I missing a required library? Any suggestions or help that can point me in the right direction would be much appreciated.

Apologies for the novice question.

Thanks,
Pranav Saha

Which kernel version are you using? 2.4.3 or 2.2.19? Are you using the "Everything in One Large File" package or the individual packages/patches? Are you using just the SELinux-modified kernel or are you trying to incorporate any other kernel patches? What is your kernel configuration?

By the way, feel free to use a newer distribution of RedHat if you want. I'm using RH7.1 now, and several others on the mailing list have done likewise.

The kernel version is 2.2.12-20 and I am using the "Everything in One Large File" package. I am attempting to use just the SELinux-modified kernel without any other patches. Not sure what you want to know about the kernel "configuration"... I have not manually made any configuration changes to the kernel beyond what is automatically configured. I may try to step up to Red Hat 7.1 if that may solve some of these installation issues?

Thanks for the guidance.
Pranav Saha

No, I don't think upgrading to RH7.1 will help with this problem. By kernel configuration, I'm referring to the settings you choose when you ran 'make menuconfig' or 'make xconfig'. Send me a copy of your .config file.

Hi -

Looks like I have an (almost) functional install of SELinux. However, after rebooting into SELinux, all of my network connections were hosed. I keep getting a "YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain Not Bound" error and the machine fails on boot when "bringing up interface eth0". Don't know if the SELinux install wrote over some of my network drivers or if it was a problem with my config??
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

ypbind is an NIS/yp (yp is the old name for it) service. it shouldn't have anything to do with SELinux/FLASK i think. are you sure you need it?

does it run when you're running a normal kernel?
