SELinux workshop @ 0×20

Jun 12, 2010 I ICT-related.

I’m plannning to hold a workshop on SELinux at hs Ghent, also called 0×20 .

If you are interested in joining us, please fill in the doodle. Note that we prefer to not hold the workshop on a Thursday, but is a possibility.

The workshop will last something between 3 and 4 hours (depending on # questions and interest) and will cover the following topics:

  • Why run SELinux?
  • SELinux contexts
  • Policies
  • SELinux auditd & logfiles
  • booleans
  • context en labeling
  • file systems
  • Confining Users
  • extra questions?

If you want to participate you will need an SELinux capable system you can play around with (I will be using Fedora / CentOS). You are encouraged to use one of previous mentioned systems too. You can install a distro in a virtual machine of course. As an extra we could try to configure SELinux on debian too, but I never tried that before. You can find a howto here.

the slides will be in English, but I can speak Dutch too. it all depends on the audience ;)

I hope to see you all there!

    Success in advance for this workshop. Too bad I can’t attend it, but would love to see the slides and recording. Will be giving a similar presentation in Beijing. ;-) See you

    well, I am sure I will be able to share the slides (but I don’t think I will have decent slides, it will be more a: look what I can do with it, now you try it! kinda workshop)

    But I will prepare decent slides for FUDcon Zurich!

    see you!

    Is there such a big difference between distro’s when configuring SElinux?

    not really.. but it takes an extra step on non- red hat machines.. and I never took that extra step, because I mostly work with Fedora or Centos;.

    Can you add the event to the wiki, so that it will be shown on the front page and in the ical feed? Thanks!
