I can't believe how tired I am today. I just want to nap. Work has
been the same ol' thing. Install software. Read email. Fix server
misconfigurations. Try to remember to log it all. I've got a paper due
today that I'll probably be working on for the rest of the night. It's
a task list for the projects we have to look forward to at CBSCS. I
love writing papers, don't you?

One project I'm looking forward to is getting LDAP PAM authentication up
and running on atp.cbs.umn.edu. The server is running right now, but I
don't have any accounts added, the filesystem has yet to be allocated
for home directories, share directories, or the website. (Good thing
the server is LVM'ed.) We need to set up SAMBA, Netatalk, and NFS.
Kerberose would be awesome, but not something I really have the time for
right now.

Who knows. Maybe I should make the time anyway. We have the
ever-present desire for the "unified login" on campus here, but OIT
won't get their act together and form a SIG to implement it. Imagine a
Kerberized LDAP network for the entire U. Central file storage, central
email that's more than 10MB in space. I really think that OIT is behind
the net on this one; waiting to see how the ice plays out. IMHO, it's a
bad tactic.

Oh well. Time to get back to work.
