1. Fresh install of Centos 7, and log in under the default user created with "Ädmin"privileges. Can't even save a text document on the desktop or home directory (does create folders though). It sounded like permissions, Is there something I can look up to learn why this has happened (Say SElinux?).
echo 0 >/selinux/enforce

will temporarily disable to check further. IMO it's is terrible pile of junk, written by people who don't understand base permissions, and I get rid of it asap.

Hi Steve,
fortunately the administration of SeLinux on RH variants is a lot easier mainly due to Dan Walsh having written many python scripts for its configuration.

Debian is a bit behind in the use of SeLinux it only uses the cli commands such as audit2allow iirc however Android 5 Lollipop now has selinux turned on by default.

Someone on this list posted this video link a while back, a good intro to the
advantages of leaving selinux on.

iirc the inability to create a text document is due to the default user or group permissions
a quick google search will find the solution.
