For version 5.0.0, we do not have OKTA Okta or Crowd authentication in place. These will be coming ASAP. NOTE - Even if you are using Okta or Crowd for authentication, you still have your users in Open-AudIT for authorisation. Just assign them a password in Open-AudIT and you can continue to use 5.0.0 until such time as Okta and/or Crowd are implemented.

One final note - If when you first log in the header states that it is Open-AudIT Community and you do have a license, DON'T PANIC. It just needs a new request to consult the license file and all will be well. Just upgrade the database (if required) and then refresh the pageand continue on. You should see the header change with the next request.

The New Stuff

Version 5 of Open-AudIT. Wow, what a ride. Underneath the skin, it is huge. We have upgraded the underlying framework and brought the code itself up to current best practices. As a result, we now install on current Redhat, Debian, and Ubuntu and we need a minimum of PHP 7.4. Hence, the following are the officially supported distributions: Redhat 8/9, Debian 11/12, and Ubuntu 20.04/22.04. We also deprecated the omkd daemon and associated Perl framework. So now there is a single interface and a single website. Obviously, this makes for less code. Which means fewer errors. And less work. All in all, I'm very happy with the result.
