Agent for Linux is in fact a 32-bit executable. For authentication, the agent uses system libraries,
32-bit versions of which are not always installed by default with 64-bit distributions. When using
the agent on a 64-bit RedHat based distribution (such as RHEL, CentOS, Fedora), or on a 64-bit
SUSE distribution, make sure that the following 32-bit packages are installed in the system:
pam.i386
libselinux.i386
libsepol.i386
These packages should be available in the repository of your Linux distribution.
Before installing the product on a system that does not use RPM Package Manager, such as an
Ubuntu system, you need to install this manager manually; for example, by running the following
command (as the root user):
apt-get install rpm
