RIMM Library

Reference Integrity Measurement Manifest (RIMM) Library

The RIMM is a list of measurements that are generated at the time of a software release. It provides a reference point to which the processed executing on a client my be validated by a remote system to determine if they have bee modified since installation.

To facilitate access to the RIMM file, a set of routines have been written that are included in the RIMM library. These routines are designed to be run on both the system generating the RIMM and the Policy Decision Point. They are normally not run nor installed on the client systems.

This module is provided as a source rpm - which when build will generate two rpms, rimm-lib and rimm-lib-devel, which contains the include files required to build programs using the rimm library.
