The main difference between the FC3 and FC4 SELinux implementations is 
that in FC4 far more daemons are covered by the default (targeted) 
SELinux policy, as mentioned in the release notes. There are still the 
same options of turning it off altogether or running in permissive mode. 
It's also possible to selectively disable SELinux for each of the 
protected daemons, so if you're having issues with one particular 
service (e.g. samba, or maybe httpd), you could turn off SELinux 
protection for that particular service but leave it on for everything else.

Paul.
