I have a couple of old servers that are being replaced and repurposed as developer testbed systems. Since they are already configured with all of the software and settings that our production boxes need I want to keep them as intact as possible. However, I want to remove selinux (and hardened in general) from a couple of them.
The one and only time I tried to remove selinux from a running system it severely broke coreutils and I ended up basically reinstalling. Is there a known-safe procedure to remove the selinux bits from a system while leaving everything else installed? What order do I need to do things to prevent the existing selinux-aware stuff from falling apart? --Mike
