LinSentry quickstart

Choose the correct Linux architecture, verify the checksum, then run LinSentry locally. Use `sudo` when you want fuller read-only coverage of logs, queues, generated configuration, and Plesk metadata.

1. Choose the binary

2. Verify and run

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
chmod +x ./linsentry-community_0.9.0_linux_amd64
./linsentry-community_0.9.0_linux_amd64 --version
./linsentry-community_0.9.0_linux_amd64 --help

Replace the filename with the exact binary you downloaded.

3. Generate reports

sudo ./linsentry-community_0.9.0_linux_amd64 --report --text-report
sudo ./linsentry-community_0.9.0_linux_amd64 --report --text-report --report-dir /path/to/reports

When report generation succeeds, LinSentry prints the generated PDF and text report paths. Treat reports as confidential operational data.
