Lab Course

Before the lab course:
- check the PCs in the Meridian building:
  - they should all be functional, broken ones should be replaced
  - in total we should have about 10 computers available for the students
- Setup the prakti accounts
Introduction to Computers/Linux for Lab Students

Serendipitous Issues

Add new Users

Go to the remeis internal homepage -> admin -> LDAP
Fill out the necessary fields, including a valid email address. If possible, also fill out the fields for room and telephone number.
Log into LDAP, go to import and copy the text of the previous step. Important: if the user is external, "current" in the first line has to be changed to "external"

When doing so you will have to enter the user's new password twice and AFTER that the LDAP admins password, which is the same as when logging into phpmyadmin.

set the password of the user: Use the LDAP query ldappasswd -H ldap://grus -x -D "cn=admin,dc=sternwarte,dc=uni-erlangen,dc=de" -W -S "uid={USERNAME},ou=current,ou=People,dc=sternwarte,dc=uni-erlangen,dc=de" while obviously adjusting the LDAP dn.
log in: ssh username@taurus
Set the quota (on taurus), using a prototype which has normal quota sudo edquota -p [prototype] [username] (normal Quota is 8GB softlimit and 12GB hardlimit; it can be manually edited/shown with edquota -u user)
if desired (in most cases), create a folder for the user at /userdata/data/[username] and adjust the permissions with sudo chown username:remeis username
send Email to admin about the new user
