Downloading & Installing
Go to open-audit.org or www.firstwave.com and download the latest version. Supply your name, email and company and download the binary.
Run “sudo ./OAE-Linux-x86_64-release_5.02.12.run” and the installer will take care of the dependencies for you.
Log on to Open-AudIT and you should see a splash screen informing you that you do not have a license – but Opmantek will give you a 20 device license for free. Just fill out the form and your 20 device license will be activated.
...
Run this and your schema will be upgraded and you can then continue to use Open-AudIT as normal.
Don't forget we have release notes available for every version so you'll know exactly what has changed.

Open-AudIT requires a database to store its information in. If you ever need to manually create this database, the commands to do so are below. You should have already set a root password. If you have not, the default root password set by an Open-AudIT installation is openauditrootuserpassword.
NOTE - Running the installer will take care of this for you.
Create the database.
