To be perfectly honest ... SELinux has frightening me from day one. For two
reasons.

1) The government had the fingers in it (I just can't fathom them
contributing positively and constructively to the F/OSS community.
2) Because it was so poorly documented that I couldn't figure it out. All it
did was serve to piss me off and I sought other, tried-and-true methods for
securing my systems.

Beyond this, I've never seen a real and valid use for SELinux ...
