System requirements

Before installing Safeguard Authentication Services 5.1.1, ensure that your system meets the minimum hardware and software requirements for your platform. The operating system patch level, hardware, and disk requirements vary by Unix, Linux, and Active Directory platform, and are detailed in the One Identity Safeguard Authentication Services Administration Guide.

NOTE: When setting up a virtual environment, carefully consider the configuration aspects such as CPU, memory availability, I/O subsystem, and network infrastructure to ensure the virtual layer has the necessary resources available. Please consult One Identity's Product Support Policies for more information on environment virtualization.

Product licensing

Safeguard Authentication Services must be licensed in order for Active Directory users to authenticate on Unix and macOS hosts.

NOTE: While you can install and configure Safeguard Authentication Services on Windows and use the included management tools to Unix-enable users and groups in Active Directory without installing a license, you must have a valid Safeguard Authentication Services license installed for full functionality.

Upon receiving your license file from One Identity, copy this license file to your desktop or other convenient location.

To add licenses using the Control Center

  1. Open the Control Center and click Preferences on the left navigation pane.
  2. Expand the Licensing section.

    The list box displays all licenses currently installed in Active Directory.

  3. Click Actions | Add a license.
  4. Browse for the license file and click Open.

    The license appears in the list box.

To add licenses directly to the Unix systems

  1. Add a valid license file to /etc/opt/quest/vas/.licenses/ directory.
  2. Validate with /opt/quest/bin/vastool license -i.

Upgrade and installation instructions

The process for upgrading the Safeguard Authentication Services Windows components from older versions is similar to the installation process. The Windows installer detects older versions and automatically upgrades them. The next time you launch Active Directory Users and Computers, Safeguard Authentication Services uses the updated Windows components. Refer to the One Identity Safeguard Authentication Services Installation Guide for detailed installation instructions.

Refer to the One IdentitySafeguard Authentication Services Upgrade Guide for more detailed information about upgrading your current version of Safeguard Authentication Services.

Of course, you may perform your Unix client management tasks from the Unix command line, if you prefer. You can find those instructions in the One Identity Safeguard Authentication Services Administration Guide.
