+        The <filename>/etc/sysconfig/selinux</filename> file contains the basic configuration options for SELinux. It is a symbolic link to <filename>/etc/selinux/config</filename>, and by default, it contains the following options:

The <replaceable>value </replaceable> can be either <option>enforcing</option> (the security policy is always enforced), <option>permissive</option> (instead of enforcing the policy, appropriate warnings are displayed), or <option>disabled</option> (no policy is used). For example:
