So is there a way I can set SELinux to permissive, and still be secure while using Calc to connect remotely to a MySQL database?
There is a difference between "running selinux in enforcing mode" and "being secure". The second does not necessarily require or originate from the first.
Or is there a way to leave SELinux enforced while also using Calc to connect remotely to a MySQL database?
Yes. You can use setroubleshoot to set it up.
Thanks Frank,
I'll study up on it. Can you reccomend a good URL or reading material for setroubleshoot? _________________________________________________________________ Helping your favorite cause is as easy as instant messaging. You IM, we give. http://im.live.com/Messenger/IM/Home/?source=text_hotmail_join
