RPM Installation

Next use ``yum`` to install the specific packages. For an OSSEC server run:

.. code-block:: console

   # yum install ossec-hids ossec-hids-server

And for an agent run:

.. code-block:: console

   # yum install ossec-hids ossec-hids-agent

Atomicorp provides `.deb` installation packages as well.

Install the apt-get repository key:

.. code-block:: console
    
    # wget -q -O - https://www.atomicorp.com/RPM-GPG-KEY.atomicorp.txt  | sudo apt-key add -

Add the repository for Debian and Ubuntu:
