How to Install OSIAM on NetBSD

OSIAM is an open source identity and access management solution that provides authentication and authorization for users and applications. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install OSIAM on NetBSD.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• A NetBSD instance
• Root access to the instance
• Internet connectivity

Step 1: Install Java

OSIAM requires Java to run. Install Java using the following command:

pkgin install openjdk-8

Step 2: Download and Install OSIAM

1. Download the latest OSIAM release from the official website.

2. Extract the downloaded file using the following command:

   tar zxvf osiam-x.x.x.tar.gz
   

3. Move the extracted directory to the desired location. For example:

   mv osiam-x.x.x /opt/osiam
   

Step 3: Configure OSIAM

1. Copy the default configuration file:

   cp /opt/osiam/example-config.yml /opt/osiam/config.yml
   

2. Edit the configuration file:

   vi /opt/osiam/config.yml
   

   Modify the following parameters according to your needs:

   osiam:
     endpoint:
       authorizationEndpoint: http://localhost:8080/oauth/authorize
       tokenEndpoint: http://localhost:8080/oauth/token
       userinfoEndpoint: http://localhost:8080/userinfo
     client:
       id: osiam
       secret: osiam-secret
       redirectUri: http://localhost:8080/login
       scopes:
         - openid
         - profile
         - email

3. Save and exit the configuration file.

Step 4: Start OSIAM

You can start OSIAM using the following command:

cd /opt/osiam && java -jar osiam.jar server config.yml

Step 5: Access OSIAM

Once OSIAM is running, you can access it using a web browser by visiting http://localhost:8080.
