Hi
while following the stops to install JRE as per
http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_installation_notes.html
the instruction which says:
If you have not already done so go to "System" > "Administration"
>
"Security Level and Firewall". Enter your root password and click
"ok". On the "SELinux" tab click on "Modify SELinux
Policy", click on
"Compatibility" to open it and tick the check box next to "Allow the
use of shared libraries with Text Relocation". Click "ok". Reboot your
machine to implement the new SELinux policy.
...
This action sets the allow_execmod SELinux boolean. You could do that
from the command line without using system-config-securitylevel as
follows:
# setsebool -P allow_execmod 1
There is no need to reboot after doing this.
However, this is not the best way of solving the problem, as it relaxes
security much more than necessary. A better way would be to set the
SElinux context type of the java libraries to textrel_shlib_t, which
would have the same effect but only for those particular libraries.
Paul.
set the SElinux context type ...
I don't understand, who is it done, could some one provide a link to the docs please.
