Hm. No there was only the grsec and the kernel upgrade (2.4.29-rc3
-> 2.4.29)
I now noticed that several services do not start at system boot
anymore... I have to start them manually (after authenticating to
rbac as admin...)
I spent days if not weeks to tune the ACLs and put every
system-users acl-stuff in an own file included from the main policy file
after full-learning for several days.
I started to do that in grsec 1.9.x times. Before learn_config and
the (i)nheritance flag have been there and where the ACL-generating
process took too much ressources because I had a huge learning log of
everal GBs so that I had to split the learning logs by users before
doing that...
I now have the feeling that it would propably be better to start the
whole process again and throw all my current policies away... what
do you think?
