Description Flóki Pálsson 2012-12-04 22:42:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
It is not possible to set system default enforcing mode  SELINUX=enforcing from SELINUX=permissive with s-c-selinux.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
policycoreutils-gui-2.1.13-37.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. with s-c-selinux set SELINUX=permissive
2. change with s-c-selinux back to enforcing
3. reboot 

  
Actual results:
System is in SELINUX=permissive mode.

Expected results:
System is in SELINUX=enforcing mode.

Additional info:
after step 2 then 
$ cat /etc/selinux/config
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
#	enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
#	permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
#	disabled - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=permissive
# SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are:
#	targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
#	strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted

changing in /etc/selinux/config 
SELINUX=permissive to SELINUX=enforcing works

This is possible in F17
