selinux-config-enforcing(8) System Manager's Manual selinux-config-enforcing(8)
NAME
selinux-config-enforcing - change /etc/selinux/config to set enforcing or permissive modes
SYNOPSIS
selinux-config-enforcing [permissive]
DESCRIPTION
selinux-config-enforcing this command will modify /etc/selinux/config to specify whether SE Linux should be in enforcing or permissive mode
on boot. This may be overridden by the "enforcing=" kernel command-line option (which takes the value 0 for permissive and 1 for enforc-
ing). The parameter "0" or "permissive" will cause it to set permissive mode, any other parameter will result in enforcing mode being set.
