Re: Encryption with remote password entering on OVH dedi

Sorry, I posted the specs from the 'pre-install' of CentOS.

Code: Select all

Linux server.server.com 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 16 18:37:12 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Feels like I've hit a dead end but I'll continue looking into full disk encryption for dedicated servers.

Encryption with remote password entering on OVH dedi

I'm currently using a dedicated server from OVH with a stock version of CentOS that was installed remotely using the VNC method.

Re: Can not enable SELinux.

I successfully installed stock CentOS 6.2 on the server remotely. I basically followed a forum post from OVH and everything went really well. Attempting to rebuild the kernel seemed tricky and not comprehensive enough. SELinux is now enforcing and this thread is done! :-D http://forum.ovh.co.uk/show...

Re: Can not enable SELinux.

Thanks for the info Trevor. Looks like selinux is a no go with an OVH kernel. I'll look into replacing the kernel or remotely installing genuine CentOS with vnc. :roll:

Re: Can not enable SELinux.

^^ Thanks! Kimsufi's are simply dedicated servers that are self-managed. If you actually read the posts on google you'll quickly realize that stupid people do stupid things and then they complain about them on the internet...lol Anyway, I'm aware of the the "custom" kernel, but am very hesitant to t...

[SOLVED] Can not enable SELinux.

I recently migrated an OVH kimsufi to CentOS 6.2. After making a few configurations I checked SELinux status and was surprised to see it was disabled. However, the configuration file shows it as enabled. I'm unable to start it with any commands and would really appreciate any help or tips anyone can...
