Enabling SELinux strict on RHEL5

I’ve been playing around with SELinux at work recently. Not surprisingly, I was struggling to get SELINUXTYPE=strict to work properly. Unfortunately, all “google results for ‘enabling selinux strict’ would return were dead ends. People would enable selinux strict, kernel panic, and ‘fix’ it by disabling selinux.

Well, a co-worker of mine *was* able to successfully enable selinux’s strict policy on RHEL5 (CentOS 5). He gave me this guide to post to the world for others to see how (thanks Mykola):
