Rocky Linux8.6 : Initial Settings

1. Disable SELinux

First, disable selinux. selinux is a feature that improves auditing and security in Linux, but when enabled, it places considerable restrictions on the behavior of services and on what can be configured. Therefore, it is basically disabled in many cases.

As it is, seinux will return to be enabled once the server is restarted, so to permanently disable selinux, modify the /etc/sysconfig/selinux file.

Change "SELINUX=enforcing" to "SELINUX=disabled"

2. System Modernization

Package updates are performed as soon as possible immediately after OS installation.
However, when a dnf update is performed, a kernel update is also performed at the same time.
A kernel update may require rebooting the system or stopping services, or worse, a kernel panic may occur and the system may not boot. It is wiser to exclude the kernel from the update.
By running dnf -y update with "--exclude=kernel*" after
kernel*" after "update" to exclude the kernel from updates.
