That is obvious, and why I asked about this in the first place. I'd like to refrain from having to run long remote sessions on each machine while experimentally editing all the various policy files. Downloading all files in one go and doing analysis and editing locally, is why I wanted to do this on Cygwin. The recent popularity of SELinux enabled distributions, will certainly ensure that more people will get involved with various SELinux policies. Another point is that there seem to exist ~3 different "flavors" of SELinux implementations, where the last addition is the SEAndroid by Google. https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/sepolicy/ As the next generation (>=KitKat) of Android mobile devices will all be distributed with SEAndroid in Enforced mode, by default. These tools will be exponentially of more interest to developers, as local editing on mobile devices are either crippled, poorly implemented and tested, or extremely inconvenient. > With that in mind a quick look in the packages list (available on the > website) or via an internet search (eg: google or bing) would of > revealed that none exist yet. Which is why I posted and asked here. I was hoping someone else would have been interested enough to have tried to build these. Building these by myself would indeed be something way above my head, especially as I am very new to -- and still learning proper SELinux usage. -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/Are-there-any-SELinux-tools-available-for-Cygwin-tp108952p108983.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
