===== Choosing the right package =====

We recommend you to read about [[http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/pie-ssp.xml|SSP/PIE]] and the [[wp>PaX]] module. You might want to choose a special Linux distribution to handle this kind of binaries for you. (Namely, [[http://hardened.gentoo.org|Gentoo Hardened]], or [[http://www.adamantix.org|Adamantix]] for example)

==== Install RSBAC on ArchLinux ====
Install [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Yaourt]] and install the kernel and admin packages for RSBAC/

This should start you up:

  yaourt rsbac

==== Install RSBAC on Gentoo ====
A special guide exists to install RSBAC on Gentoo:
  * http://hardened.gentoo.org/rsbac


==== Install RSBAC on Debian ====
Debian provides RSBAC packages in the unstable branch. They are often outdated, so you might not want to use them.

You can, however, compile your kernel [[installing_from_source|from source]] and create a Debian package from the RSBAC source admin tool package (debian files are already provided).

A complete debian guide on how to create ''.deb'' packages is available [[http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkg_basics.en.html|online at debian.org]].

However, if you are familiar with the process, you simply need to unpack the rsbac admin tool archive and issue this command:

  dpkg --build rsbac-admin-<version> rsbac-admin-<version>.deb

and install it:

  dpkg --install rsbac-admin-<version>.deb


==== Install RSBAC on Mandriva ====
RSBAC is installed by default with Mandriva kernels. To enable it, you simply need to install the rsbac-admin package using their graphical tool, and to pass the ''rsbac_on'' kernel argument at system boot.

RSBAC might be automatically set up and enabled in future Mandriva versions.
