That's my biggest problem with SELinux. I suppose at some point I need
to invest both time and money and take a class on it, but every time I
try to use it - it gets in the way and when I try to resolve it, the
documentation is very confusing and I think the documentation often
makes assumptions about concepts being known that I don't know.
I know that it can be a significant benefit when you are attacked with
an exploit that either is either zero-day or hasn't been patched, but so
far when I have tried enabling SELinux it ends up taking up hours and
hours and hours of my time.
And sometimes the problems are things like tmpfs - I don't remember
exactly what it was, but I had an issue where when I finally got help,
the answer was don't use tmpfs if you have SELinux enabled.
I want to use it, I do, but so far it has only caused me grief.
