SE Linux – not too difficult for new users

At http://tanso.net/selinux/ Jan-Frode Myklebust has documented his work in creating new SE Linux policy to run Googleearth on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. He discussed this with us on #selinux in irc.freenode.net (the main SE Linux IRC channel).

One of his later IRC comments was:
<janfrode> btw erich, the reason for creating this googleearth module was mostly triggered by your apparmor blog entry.. I wanted to see how much more difficult it would be to create policies in selinux compared to apparmor, and must say it wasn’t too hard.

“erich” refers to Erich Schubert. His AppArmor blog entry is currently the top entry in his SE Linux list.
