<div dir="ltr"><div>Thank you Alan,</div><div><br></div><div>I tried RMP install available for CentOS 7 and installation was successful but I downloaded RPM in /opt/shibboleth and installed RPM in that directory but still the packages were installed under /etc/shibboleth. I believe as you mentioned default directories are being forced to be installed in /etc/shibboleth.</div><div><br></div><div>I'll have to look for container options and building from scratch.
