This is an attempt to document the Computing part of YSTV.
General Docs
Overview - Computing Overview. This details generally what's going on with ystv computers.
Station Servers - Documentation on the ever increasing number of servers in YSTV
Station PCs - Documentation on each of the Desktop PCs used in YSTV
The Network - Documentation on how the network in YSTV is currently setup
FaffoCue - our new shiny autocue
P169 PC - PC to remotely control a P169
Authentication
Authentcaition is performed using an OpenLDAP database as the main backend. This and a lot of other possibly complicated things come together to give a fairly reasonable Single Sign On(SSO) system.
For a rough idea of how everything fits together, take a look at the Overview above.
Details on the specific configuration of various services can be found in these pages:
LDAP Auth Configuration - Main backend
PAM Auth Configuration - UNIX Auth settings (for new unix machines)
Samba Configuration - Samba config. Auth for Windows machines and shares
Postfix Configuration - Looks to LDAP for mail aliases for users
Dovecot Configuration - Authenticates IMAP logins via LDAP
