Not actually disabled yet, for example try changing roots password in the container and you will not be able to. Doing the change to the hosts /etc/selinux/config you showed and rebooting the host should disable it, not just set it to permissive. As long as sestatus shows like above (the SELinux status is enabled), programs in the guest still think its enabled regardless of what the config file says because they call the libselinux::is_selinux_enabled() function I mentioned above which checks to see if selinuxfs is in /proc/filesystems. > BTW, for root login all what I did was to disable all > pam_selinux.so pam_loginuid.so lines in /etc/pam.d/login ! Yes, you may also have to add lxc/tty1 or pts/0 (for libvirt) to $container/etc/securetty depending on how you have your ptys mapped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
