Where can I find information explaining the above?
Search for PAM configuration on Google. This has actually absolutely
nothing to do with SELinux ;-).
firewall
SELinux is not firewall and it is not intended as replacement of thereof.
reasonable learning curve, the users are presented with this
monstrous
security system understood only by full-blown programmers. Is there a
way of learning SELinux without the computer science degree prerequisit?
Normal user is not supposed to understand SELinux, it should just work
for him (or he can file bugs). If you want to fiddle with it, then you
should know what you are doing.
If you want to learn stuff, then the best source I found was "SELinux
User Guide" (http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-user-guide/) and
probably even better "SELinux by Example" (http://www.amazon.com/SELinux-
Example-Security-Enhanced-Development/dp/0131963694/) ... it is slightly
dated, but it leads you very nicely from simple to hights which are
unsurmountable for regular human beings.
Best,
