Start stop and remove AppArmor in Ubuntu
Start stop and remove AppArmor in Ubuntu AppArmor is a security extension (similar to SELinux) that should provide extended security, which usually causes more problems than advantages. AppArmor was first made available to Ubuntu in Ubuntu 7.04 in Universe. AppArmor is usually installed and loaded by default. Stop AppArmor: sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop Start AppArmor: sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor start Reloading AppArmor profiles: sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload Remove from services (it doesnt load anymore at system start-up). First you need to stop it as shown above: sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove Install the AppArmor service: sudo update-rc.d apparmor defaults To see the status of service: sudo apparmor_status After reboot i have noticed that apparmor is still running even after being removed from system start-up. So, i have uninstalled it: sudo apt-get remove apparmor Resources: Ubuntu.com download file now
