Doubt elrepo.org and Grsecurity

[nelsonq]

Hi.

I updated my kernel with elrepo.org
to 3.10.46-1.el6.elrepo.i686 (My system is Centos 6.5)

Now I want to use the grsecurity patch, my question is:

¿ Can use grsecurity ?

Thank you very much for your time, I appreciate your response.

Hi ¿can anyone give me their opinion about this issue?

Thank you.

Yes, you can use grsecurity, but you will likely have to compile your kernel yourself. As far as I can tell, elrepo doesn't provide a grsecurity patched kernel. Depending on what you want to do you'll likely need additional userspace tools like paxctl (or chpax or paxctl-ng) and gradm.

Hi there N8Fear.

I'll Investigate about paxctl, chpax, gradm and paxctl-ng, thanks.
