Install the Okta Privileged Access gateway on Red Hat (RHEL), or Amazon Linux

Note:

There are some known issues when managing Active Directory accounts with Okta Privileged Access that apply to Amazon Linux gateway installations. See Okta Privileged Access - Amazon Linux Gateway Known Issues.

Add the RPM key.
sudo rpm --import https://dist.scaleft.com/GPG-KEY-OktaPAM-2023

To access the artifacts, create one of the following files:

Stable: /etc/yum.repos.d/oktapam-stable.repo
Preview: /etc/yum.repos.d/oktapam-preview.repo

Replace PLATFORM-KEY with the appropriate platform name. For example, amazonlinux, rhel, alma. Replace RELEASE-VERSION with the appropriate major version of the OS. For example, 7, 8, and 9 (don't include the minor version).

Stable

gpgcheck=1
repo_gpgcheck=1

Preview

[oktapam-preview]

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=https://dist.scaleft.com/GPG-KEY-OktaPAM-2023

Run dnf update and accept the new GPG key.

Note:

If you get 404 errors, make sure the RELEASE-VERSION in step 2 is replaced with a supported version and only includes the major version. For example, for RedHat 8.6, replace RELEASE-VERSION with 8.
