−	~~==== 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 prakti\|Setup the prakti accounts]]
−	* [[Computer_Introduction\|Introduction to Computers/Linux for Lab Students ]]

−	~~==== Serendipitous Issues ====~~
−
−	* [[Login Problems\|Typical login problems]]
−	* [[Unmet Dependencies\|''unmet dependencies'' issue in apt-get]]
−	* [[Overflow Filesystem\|overflow file system]]
−
−	~~==== 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 ( https://www.sternwarte.uni-erlangen.de/phpldapadmin/), 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"
−	* set the password of the user: Use the LDAP query <code>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"</code> while obviously adjusting the LDAP dn.
−	* log in as ubuntuadmin on taurus and create the home directory like that: <code>sudo mkdir /exports/disk1/{USERNAME} && sudo chown {USERNAME}:remeis /exports/disk1/{USERNAME}</code>
−	* Set the quota (on taurus), using a prototype which has normal quota <code>sudo edquota -p [prototype] [username]</code> (normal Quota is 8GB softlimit and 12GB hardlimit; it can be manually edited/shown with edquota -u user)
−	* Add the file for automatic forwarding of system emails: <code>/home/username/.forward</code> which should just contain the mail address of the new user
−	* Add the default cshrc to /home/username/.cshrc
−	* If desired (in most cases), create a folder for the user at ''/userdata/data/username'' and adjust the permissions with <code>sudo chown username:remeis /userdata/data/username</code>
−	* Send Email to admin about the new user
−
−	~~==== Running Software / Updates / Setups ====~~
−
−	~~In this section a selection of services and their current configuration is described.~~
