Just these 6 lines in /var/log/messages each time the machine is booted:

Aug 26 09:06:49 mavis kernel: SELinux:  Initializing.
Aug 26 09:06:49 mavis kernel: SELinux:  Starting in permissive mode
Aug 26 09:06:49 mavis kernel: selinux_register_security:  Registering 
secondary module capability
Aug 26 09:06:50 mavis kernel: SELinux:  Registering netfilter hooks
Aug 26 09:06:50 mavis kernel: SELinux:  Disabled at runtime.
Aug 26 09:06:50 mavis kernel: SELinux:  Unregistering netfilter hooks

Which, I assume, is a result of:

# cat /etc/selinux/config
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
#       enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
#       permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
#       disabled - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are:
#       targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
#       strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted

Yes. Always other things.  I think I'll abandon this one for the time 
being and concentrate on a very nice box that a friend GAVE me last 
Monday. Maybe it will behave properly.
