This is my page with a list of projects I'm currently working on, just so that I can remember what I'm supposed to be doing.

- Use mysql data for NIS
- A better option would be to implement mysql system on all servers, as it is on Universal

- Install ntpdate so that it time is updated on reboot to stop ntp from failing to start - done on most servers
Server Configuration
- A copy of configuration files for all servers is maintained in CVS.
- Scripts are run in working copy to generate dynamic files in working copy.
- Rsync is used to keep servers up to date with working copy (Like website).
Current plan of action:
1. Create cvs module
2. Create working copy
3. Run scripts on working copy
4. Test on Universal
5. Set up rsync on all servers
6. Populate with other customised configuration files
At the same time:
1. Create cvs module for auth website
2. Make auth.filmsoc https only
3. Work on pages for changing password
4. Work on pages for other tasks
5. Create API for performing tasks like login and change password
Authentication System
- Web interface for controlling user data
- NIS
- cvs
- Implement use of domain controller for windows use of network resources
Version Control System
