Description: In chapter 11, on the "Controlling SELinux Port Labeling" page (ch11s03), in the "Managing SELinux Port Labeling" section, it would be nice to remove the Note related to system-config-selinux. As an experiment, while I was able to install policycoreutils-gui on workstation, running system-config-selinux as student doesn't work. A window pops up prompting for credentials, but ultimately it doesn't open and errors are displayed in the terminal window. It doesn't work from the Activities menu either. I was able to get it to work by logging in graphically as root, but we certainly don't want to encourage this. Since chapter 5 (Managing SELinux Security) didn't mention this tool, I don't think this page should mention it either. Keep in mind that if you remove the Note, you will also have to remove the Reference to system-config-selinux.
