Subject: Per Domain Permissive Mode
Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2007 10:55:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4677EE5B.9030405@redhat.com> (raw)

Steven mentioned in another conversion the idea of a Per Domain 
Permissive Mode.  This is something our customers are looking for. 

A few customers want to write policy to confine an application but they 
are afraid of releasing it in enforcingmode to hundreds/thousands of 
machines, and then finding out they missed a crucial code path.  The 
would like to be able to write the policy distribute it and gather AVC 
messages in for a couple of months, until they fail confident that the 
policy will work.  Currently they would have to turn all the machines to 
permissive mode or take there chances.  

Having a simple domain that would run in permissive mode while the rest 
of the machine ran enforcing would satisfy this need.

Thoughts...

Dan
