I package and maintain rpm packages for openSUSE/SLES which are available in the openSUSE Build System, see the link below for the project/package. While OBS supports all linux distributions I currently do have have RHEL distro's enabled since I use the Atomic repos for the few RHEL systems I manage. Updating the .spec to support RHEL sysetms should be fairly straight forward if you're interested in taking a stab at it.
I "mostly" follow what install.sh does but I go beyond what it does since I wanted packages for the various SQL backends, made OSSEC install directory LSB complient, /var/lib/ossec, and patch it to NOT use the supplied zlib but rather zlib which is distributed w/the OS. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/server:monitoring/ossec-hids -- Later, Darin On Tue, Mar 3, 2015 at 7:03 PM, autodidactic <theoriginalg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello OSSEC users: > > I have been working on building RPM packages for OSSEC.
