Hi all,
Hopefully this is the best forum for this question, so forgive me if I am off. Anyway, I am learning to create a web server from scratch using a basic Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS install and was thinking about trying zPanel. I was researching this tool and it says that the install script is going to remove app armor. Now I have decided to download and print the manual for apparmor since it is a default install with Ubuntu server and was curious why they would uninstall it for a tool like zPanel.
Then I started checking other software and there are a bunch of people that basically say something along the lines of, "apparmor? Uninstall that crap." So I was curious if anyone could help me understand exactly what apparmor does, and whether I should or should not be concerned about removing apparmor.
I didn't think it was really anything more than an access control kind of software, so I just wasn't sure. I'm looking to make this web server secure for public access as well (hosting a webpage eventually) and want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
Thanks in advance for any help/knowledge anyone can give.
