Cloud Client Services and Dependencies

Cloud Client installs the cagent daemon during enrollment.

The following are requirements for all Cloud Client Linux installations: 

• Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM).

• PERL 5 Runtime (some distributions will require manually installing the package).

Alpine Linux special dependencies: 

• bash

• perl

• openssh-server-pam

• musl-nscd

• sudo

• nss-pam-ldapd

The apk package manager should automatically install the above packages when installing Cloud Client but may not automatically start the nscd daemon. If it doesn't, run `service nscd start`.
