The role of ASS has been rolled into Technocrats.

ASS is an acronym representing "Administrators of Systems and Security".

The ASSes ~~are~~were the oldest working group at Free Geek. They were the people who designed and managed the network at Free Geek, and were responsible for developing our IT security policy. Technocrats now do this with the assistance of volunteers who attend our Cabling Parties and the odd bit of help from old friends and others.

-To integrate our account management and make it possible to change email passwords.
-;So far we have:
-* the ldap server itself is built, with ldap and sldap installed
-* we did a test run for authenticating a user on a remote machine which "worked"
-;What we need:
-* to better define how we will use ldap
-* to create better schema for our purposes
-* possibly put the ldap server into the dmz, if we want to authenticate mail with it.
-* review and update the security on the server (passwords, webmin, &c.)
