The Lazy Admin's Toolkit
« on: May 27, 2003, 05:31:29 PM »
Hi,

I just released the stable version of the Lazy Admin's Toolkit, a set of scripts that will allow you to perform many admin tasks from the command line or as a batch process.

Currently the following tools are available:
- lat-user : add/delete users
- lat-group : add/delete groups
- lat-pseudonyms : add/delete e-mail pseudonyms for individual users
- lat-ibays : add/delete ibays
- lat-quota : set the disk quota for individual users
- lat-procmail : activate or deactivate procmail for individual users
- lat-hosts : add hostnames to the server
- lat-pptp : activate or deactivate pptp access for individualusers
- lat-domains : create virtual domains

You can find them on http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/mblotwijk/HowToGuides/batch-tasks-howto.htm

Enjoy!

Has anyone had problems with lat-pseudonyms ? I have just used lat-users, lat-groups and lat-pptp but the pseudonyms just does not seem to work? I have tried using a file, and tired adding just one user, but both just bring up the usage help for it?

Yep, that was a very silly last-minute bug in 0.7.1. Fixed it in the new release.
Sorry for wasting your time with that.

You ever thought of making a GUI Front end, that you can select your list and then click "Import Users"

Or something like that???
Or if anyone else has done this, it would be really really really really good. because this is the only thing I'm missing, I know you can do it from Cmd line, which is cool, but I'd still like to have it as a GUI.

For the other ppl that come along and have to do this stuff.

Thanks
