+Title: One step closer to single signon in Debian Edu
+Tags: english, nuug, debian edu
+Date: 2010-07-25 10:00
+
+<p>The last few months I have been working hard to get the
+Debian/Squeeze based version of Debian Edu/Skolelinux into shape.
+This future version will use Kerberos for authentication, and services
+are slowly migrated to single sign, getting rid of password questions
+one at the time.</p>
+
+<p>It will also feature a roaming workstation profile with local home
+directory, for laptops that are only some times on the Skolelinux
+network, and for this profile a shortcut is created in Gnome and KDE
+to gain access to the users home directory on the file server.  This
+shortcut uses SMB at the moment, and yesterday I had time to test if
+SMB mounting had started working in KDE after we added the cifs-utils
+package.  I was surprised how well it worked.</p>
+
+<p>Thanks to the recent changes to our samba configuration to get it
+to use Kerberos for authentication, there were no question about user
+password when mounting the SMB volume.  A simple click on the shortcut
+in the KDE menu, and a window with the home directory popped
+up. :)</p>
+
+<p>One step closer to a single signon solution out of the box in
+Debian Edu.  We already had PAM, LDAP, IMAP and SMTP in place, and now
+also Samba.  Next step is Cups and hopefully also NFS.</p>
+
+<p>We had plannet a alpha0 release of Debian Edu for today, but thanks
+to the autobuilder admins for some architectures being slow to sign
+packages, we are still missing the fixed LTSP package we need for the
+release.  It was uploaded three days ago with urgency=high, and if it
+had entered testing yesterday we would have been able to test it in
+time for a alpha0 release today.  As the binaries for ia64 and powerpc
+still not uploaded to the Debian archive, we need to delay the alpha
+release another day.</p>
