Install the LCE Server

Before You Begin:

Download the LCE server package from the Tenable downloads page.
Install the software the LCE server is dependent on.

Installation Location

Caution: /opt/lce/ must not contain any symbolic links.

Installing the Package

Note: To ensure consistency of audit record time stamps between the LCE and Tenable.sc, make sure that the underlying OS makes use of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) as described at http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Deployment_Guide/sect-Date_and_Time_Configuration-Command_Line_Configuration-Network_Time_Protocol.html

If you are upgrading from a previous version of LCE , please skip this section and see Upgrade the LCE Server. Please follow the instructions in this section for new installations.

To install the LCE RPM, enter the following command: rpm -ivh <package name>, where <package name> is the name of the LCE server package you downloaded from the Tenable downloads page.

For example:

 
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
  1:lce                        ########################################### [100%]
The installation process is complete.
Please refer to /var/log/lce_upgrade.log to review installation messages.
This is a new installation. To configure LCE, please direct your browser to:
https://l92.168.1.101:8836

The installation process will create a user and group named lce and install the LCE server to the /opt/lce directory. All files will be installed with the user and group of lce except for the majority of LCE daemons, which are set-user-id root. An LCE daemon is started by the root user; once the appropriate port(s) are bound, it will drop root privileges.
