22Documentation :
23---------------
24
25pykota.schema :
26
27    This file can be used to modify an existing LDAP directory
28    to add the necessary object classes and attributes for use
29    with PyKota.
30   
31    Include it in your LDAP server's configuration.
32    For example, with OpenLDAP 2.1.17 under Debian :
33   
34        $ cp pykota.schema /etc/ldap/schema
35       
36    Then edit /etc/ldap/slapd.conf and add a line to   
37    include the PyKota schema. You should have something
38    like :
39   
40        # Schema and objectClass definitions
41        include         /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema
42        include         /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.schema
43        include         /etc/ldap/schema/nis.schema
44        include         /etc/ldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
45        include         /etc/ldap/schema/pykota.schema
46       
47    While this is not mandatory, you may want to create   
48    some indexes to speed things up a bit :
49   
50      You should already have these :
51     
52        index objectClass eq
53        index cn pres,eq,sub
54        index uid pres,eq,sub
55       
56      But we recommend that you add these : 
57     
58        index pykotaUserName pres,eq,sub
59        index pykotaGroupName pres,eq,sub
60        index pykotaPrinterName pres,eq,sub
61        index pykotaLastJobIdent eq
62       
63    Now you must ensure that the DN you use to bind to   
64    your OpenLDAP server don't have search queries size limits,
65    which gives for example (OpenLDAP 2.1.x or above) :
66   
67        limits dn="cn=RWadmin,dc=example,dc=com" size.soft=-1 size.hard=soft
68        limits dn="cn=ROadmin,dc=example,dc=com" size.soft=-1 size.hard=soft
69   
70    Where RWadmin and ROadmin are the usernames used to bind to your
71    OpenLDAP server within PyKota, respectively in ReadWrite mode
72    (as set in pykotadmin.conf) and in ReadOnly mode (pykota.conf).
73   
74    Finally, restart the OpenLDAP server :   
75   
76        $ /etc/init.d/slapd restart
77
78pykota-sample.ldif :
79
80    You can use this file to initialize an LDAP tree for PyKota, if
81    you want.
82   
83    The structure used in this file is NOT mandatory !
84    Provided you put correct parameters into /etc/pykota/pykota.conf,
85    you can structure your LDAP directory the way you want.
86   
87To use an LDAP directory as the Quota Storage, just modify 
88/etc/pykota/pykota.conf to make it contain lines similar to the LDAP
89related ones in conf/pykota.conf.sample, but adapted to your
90own configuration. Also de-activate the PostgreSQL-related lines.
