<para>This guide is written for anyone installing OpenAM policy agents to
interface with supported web servers and Java EE application
containers.</para>

once per version. This guide aims to provide you with at least some idea
of what happens behind the scenes when you perform the steps.</para>
<para>You do not need to be an OpenAM wizard to learn something from
this guide, though a background in access management and maintaining
web application software can help. You do need some background in

servers. You can nevertheless get started with this guide, and then
learn more as you go along.</para>
