How To Disable SELinux on CentOS 6
Edit configuration file and set SELINUX=disabled
vi /etc/selinux/config # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=disabled # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: # targeted - Targeted processes are protected, # mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted
and then reboot the system.
The getenforce command returns Disabled when SELinux is disabled
# getenforce Disabled
