1.5.1.8 Ensure SETroubleshoot is not installed

Information

The SETroubleshoot service notifies desktop users of SELinux denials through a user-friendly interface. The service provides important information around configuration errors, unauthorized intrusions, and other potential errors.

The SETroubleshoot service is an unnecessary daemon to have running on a server, especially if X Windows is disabled.

Solution

Run the following command to uninstall setroubleshoot :

# yum remove setroubleshoot
