SELinux [Electronic resources] نسخه متنی

3.6 Installing from Source

If you want to
install SELinux on a system running
a Linux distribution other than one for which SELinux support is
available, you may be able to do so by using the
NSA's SELinux release, available at http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/code. However, the
release is not a generic, cross-platform release. Instead, the
current release is designed to work with Fedora Core 2.

The NSA's SELinux release has the following
components:

Kernel patch

SELinux shared library

SELinux utilities for managing policies and users

SELinux reference policy

Modified Linux programs, including SysVinit
(modified to load SELinux policy during boot), PAM, Linux utilities
(vipw, chsh,
chfn, passwd), OpenSSH,
vixie cron, Shadow utilities (programs that
modify /etc/passwd and
/etc/shadow), GNU core utilities,
procps (modified to display process context
information), and star (backup and recovery
utility)

SELinux documentation

To adapt the NSA's release to a new platform
generally requires modifications to build files and may require
modificationspotentially significantly difficult
modificationsto userland and kernel source code. Therefore,
it's not recommended that those other than skilled
programmers attempt to implement SELinux on an unsupported platform.
