take what? a little more info as to just what you are trying to do would help.

i am new to msec, also, as i disabled it while playing with md 8.1. now, with
md 9.0, i am currently setting at level 3, and learning. which has been slow,
but only because i have not spent enough time with msec.

you did not mention if you rtfm, so, some of what i have been thru;

-+-
# p4p-msec-info

command line::
  man msec
  man mseclib
  less /usr/share/doc/msec-*/CHANGES
  less /usr/share/doc/msec-*/README
  less /usr/share/doc/msec-*/security.txt

to locate msec files;
  find / -name "*msec*" -print > find-msec

x-window::
  open 'mandrake linux documentation',
   select 'quick-configuration server guide [html][pdf]',
   scroll 'table of contents' to 'iii applied theory',
   click, read chapter 10, 11.
 or;
  open html browser, open file,
   /usr/share/doc/mandrake/en/Server_Conf_guide.html/server-theory.html
  read chapter 10, 11.

if ole shows hotlinks::
  file://usr/share/doc/msec-*/CHANGES
  file://usr/share/doc/msec-*/README
  file://usr/share/doc/msec-*/security.txt
  file://etc/security/msec/level.local
  file://var/lib/msec/security.conf
  file://etc/security/msec/security.conf
  file://usr/share/doc/mandrake/en/Server_Conf_guide.html/server-theory.html
