You're encountering permission issues when trying to edit the SELinux configuration file. Make sure you're using the correct permissions for the command. Since you're logged in as root, try running the command with `sudo`:

```bash
sudo /etc/selinux/config
```

If you still get a Permission Denied error, double-check your file permissions or consider using `sudo -i` to interact with the system more safely. Let me know if you need further help!

Have you explored a manual published within the past five years? Fedora 11 is ten years old, so it’s unlikely you’d have installed that... https://www.tecmint.com/disable-selinux-...el-fedora/
