# Installation
The following packages are needed to install PostgreSQL with Python support:
**Debian/Ubuntu**
Debian/Ubuntu
* postgresql
* libpq-dev
* python-psycopg2
Centos/RHEL
* postgresql
* postgresql-server
* postgresql-libs
* postgresql-devel
Debian/Ubuntu
```
# sudo apt-get install -y postgresql libpq-dev python-psycopg2
```
Centos/RHEL
```
# sudo yum install postgresql postgresql-server postgresql-libs postgresql-devel
# apt-get install -y postgresql libpq-dev python-psycopg2
```
# Configuration
**CentOS/RHEL**
```
# yum install -y postgresql postgresql-server postgresql-devel python-psycopg2
# postgresql-setup initdb
```
If using CentOS, modify the PostgreSQL configuration to accept password-based authentication by replacing `ident` with `md5` for all host entries within `/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf`. For example:
```
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all ::1/128 md5
```
Then, start the service:
```
# systemctl start postgresql
```
# Database Creation
At a minimum, we need to create a database for NetBox and assign it a username and password for authentication. This is done with the following commands.
