Introduction

This directory contains the packages and the documentation required to install
and configure Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 2 (RHEL4-U2) on a specific set
of HP platforms to an evaluated level. This level meets the Common Criteria
Controlled Access Protection Profile (CAPP) at Assurance Level 3+ (EAL3+). This
evaluation was conducted by an independent evaluator, atsec Information
Security (http://www.atsec.com/), using the Common Criteria methodology
(http://www.commoncriteriaportal.org/) and validated by the Common Criteria
Evaluation and Validation Scheme (CCEVS) Validation Body of the U.S. Government
(http://niap.nist.gov/cc-scheme).

For more information regarding the Common Criteria Evaluation process and
Protection Profiles, Web URLs are provided at the end of this file.

Purpose

The purpose of this README is to guide the reader on how to obtain the
Evaluation Configuration Guide (ECG) in order to use its instructions. The
(ECG) is contained in the capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6-1.EL4.noarch.rpm
RPM package. The ECG lists the requirements and describes how to install and 
configure a RHEL4-U2 system to be compliant with the Controlled Access 
Protection profile (CAPP). 

The ECG file RHEL-CAPP-EAL3-HP-Configuration-Guide is included in the
following rpm:

ftp://partners.redhat.com/EAL3_RHEL4/HP/noarch/capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6-1.EL4.noarch.rpm

To get the ECG do the following:

1- From an existing Internet-connected system equipped with the rpm or 
   rpm2cpio package management tools, download 
   capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6-1.EL4.noarch.rpm from the above ftp
   directory: wget ftp://partners... (use FTP URL above)

2- Run as root at a command line:
   rpm -i capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6-1.EL4.noarch.rpm
   This will only install the ECG and a set of kickstart files.  

   Alternatively, run:
   rpm2cpio capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6-1.EL4.noarch.rpm | cpio -id
   to unpack the archive contents in the current directory without
   installing them.  This does not require administrator rights.

3- The ECG file RHEL-CAPP-EAL3-HP-Configuration-Guide is included in multiple
   formats: as man page, pdf, pod and txt. You can find the various formats in
   directory /usr/share/doc/capp-eal3-config-hp-1.6.

4- Read the ECG and follow the instructions carefully.  The ECG describes
   how to obtain and the required software packages and describes various
   installation methods.
