Sure. It is high security, it does not allow you (a malicious hacker) to insert malicious module :/ Fredl, I think it is wrong to add it to preload. It has been discussed already and now libmsec is activated only for servers (see daemon in /etc/init.d/functions) if LIBSAFE=yes. Do enable_libsec should actually just set LIBSAFE=yes not adding to ld.so.preload. -andrej
