Yes, it just works! I started with Linux when patching your own kernel was expected, and something you did regularly. So I've never had any aversion to patching kernels, running beta kernels on servers, etc. I can understand how you might get nervous about it though. One thing to note with grsecurity, lsm, and probably many other kernel patches is that the feature set that's available depends on the version of the kernel you use. The current grsecurity kernel-patch package has two versions of the patch, 1.9.2 for kernels >= 2.4.16 and 1.8.9 for kernels <= 2.4.14. I am not sure which version you'll get if you apply it to 2.4.15. -- If you send email to me or to a mailing list that I use which has >4 lines of legalistic junk at the end then you are specifically authorizing me to do whatever I wish with the message and all other messages from your domain, by posting the message you agree that your long legalistic sig is void. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
