  1. Mount the NSSO CD.

  2. Change to the platform/setup directory on the CD.

    The platform can be Solaris or Linux.

  3. Log in as the root user on the host server where SSO has to be installed.

  4. Run the sso-install script.

    When prompted, accept the license agreement.

    Select the components that you are prompted to install.

  5. Configure SecretStore for UNIX.
