+Title: Debian Edu roaming workstation - at the university of Oslo
+Tags: english, nuug, debian edu

+
+<p>The new roaming workstation profile in Debian Edu/Squeeze is fairly
+similar to the laptop setup am I working using Ubuntu for the
+University of Oslo, and just for the heck of it, I tested today how
+hard it would be to integrate that profile into the university
+infrastructure.  In this case, it is the university LDAP server,
+Active Directory Kerberos server and SMB mounting from the Netapp file
+servers.</p>
+
+<p>I was pleasantly surprised that the only three files needed to be
+changed (/etc/sssd/sssd.conf, /etc/ldap.conf and
+/etc/mklocaluser.d/20-debian-edu-config) and one file had to be added
+(/usr/share/perl5/Debian/Edu_Local.pm), to get the client working.
+Most of the changes were to get the client to use the university LDAP
+and Kerberos server, but one was to change a hard coded DNS domain
+name in the mklocaluser hook.</p>
+
+<p>This testing was so encouraging, that I went ahead and adjusted the
+Debian Edu scripts and setup in svn to centralise the roaming
+workstation setup a bit more and avoid the hardcoded DNS domain name,
+so that when I test this tomorrow, I expect to get away with modifying
+only /etc/sssd/sssd.conf and /etc/ldap.conf to get it to use a
+different set of servers.  The goal is to get the clients to have no
+hardcoded settings and fetch all their initial setup during
+installation and first boot, to allow them to be inserted also into
+environments where the default setup in Debian Edu has been changed or
+as with the university, where the environment is different but
+provides the protocols Debian Edu uses.</p>
