# Installing on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, CentOS and similar
**These instructions apply to any RPM-based distribution with `systemd`.**
RPM binary packages exist to simplify the installation of Yggdrasil. These
will also work on any other RPM-based distribution.
## Install RPM package from COPR repository
There's a [Fedora COPR repository](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/leisteth/yggdrasil/) available, which provides recent versions of Yggdrasil - *not only for Fedora, but also for CentOS/RHEL!*
### Fedora
Installation on Fedora is easy as:
```bash
dnf copr enable leisteth/yggdrasil
dnf install yggdrasil
```
... and you're ready to go!
### CentOS / RHEL
Paste the following into a new file `/etc/yum.repos.d/yggdrasil.repo`:
```
[leisteth-yggdrasil]
name=Copr repo for yggdrasil owned by leisteth
baseurl=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/leisteth/yggdrasil/epel-7-$basearch/
type=rpm-md
skip_if_unavailable=True
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/leisteth/yggdrasil/pubkey.gpg
repo_gpgcheck=0
enabled=1
enabled_metadata=1
```
*Don't forget to change the `baseurl` according to your RHEL/CentOS version! In the config above, version 7 is used.*
Install yggdrasil:
```bash
yum update
yum install yggdrasil
```
## One-off package install from CircleCI (not recommended!)
Visit our [Builds](builds.md) page and download the relevant `.rpm` file, then
install it on your system:
```
sudo groupadd --system yggdrasil
sudo rpm -i yggdrasil...rpm
```
Configuration will be generated automatically into `/etc/yggdrasil.conf` when
the package is installed, and the Yggdrasil service will automatically be
installed into systemd and started.
**Please note: By using this installation method, you won't receive (security-/) updates for Yggdrasil!**
## Making configuration changes
Modify the `/etc/yggdrasil.conf` file and then either reload the config:
```
systemctl reload yggdrasil
```
... or restart the Yggdrasil daemon altogether:
```
systemctl restart yggdrasil
```
## After installation
Read the [Linux platform page](platform-linux.md) page for further
information about Linux platform support.
