Kyle,

Next month I'm retaking the RH300 course for RHEL4. SELinux is just one
of the new components introduced since RH7.1, and I hope they spend time
going through its fine points. Overcoming my ignorance of SELinux is one
of my major objectives this time. From what I've read about it thus far,
it offers a quantum leap in application-specific security that makes
things like permissions and ACLs seem primitive in comparison.
