I could think of a million reasons . For example , let´s just say that
they don´t have an idea about what mandatory access control is and
how to live with it .

Well that could be your problem Tim . As you say , u run SERVERS . Servers
are supposed to do very specific things and not every day stuff.

Well that´s the issue . I can´t really understand why i can´t do any 
stupid thing
with the computer i have payed for . I payed for the computer and not the
SELinux development it , an agency , a corporation or whatever else . I 
just
want to open my computer and do my stupid things and if i mess things up 
, then
so i did . It would be my mess and i would be really happy to clean it . 
After all
it is my mess and am paying for it ( well the paying part am doing 
either way ) .
