The Lazy Administrator's Toolkit
================================
Version: 0.9.0 (2004-09-08)
The Lazy Administrator's Tools is a set of scripts designed to automate batch
tasks and admin jobs for E-Smith/SME servers (5.x/6.x).
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-domains : add domainnames the server
* lat-hosts : add hostnames to the server
* lat-procmail : activate or deactivate procmail for individual users
* lat-pptp : activate or deactivate VPN access for individual users
* lat-dump : create input files for the above lat-tools, based on the
configuration files of the SME servers.
INSTALLATION:<3A>
Download the latest version of the tools from
http://www.contribs.org/contribs/mblotwijk/Contribs/lazy-admin-tools/.
Install the tools as 'root':
[root@hogwarts /]# rpm -Uvh e-smith-lazy_admin_tools-*.rpm
This installs the tools in /usr/sbin, the example files in
/usr/doc/lazy-admin-tools and the man-pages in /usr/man/man8.
USAGE:
Each tool has its own comprehensive man page. See `man lazy-admin-tools` for an
overview of the tools that have been installed.
All tools follow the same concept:
- Arguments can be specified on the command line (--comand-line), or in a file
(--input-file) for batch processing.
- If the arguments are specified on the command line, the arguments must be
between quotes (e.g. -c="foo | bar | baz")
- Most tools recognize the wildcards * and ? in the first argument
(e.g -c="foo* | bar | baz").
- See the relevant man pages for the exact usage of the various tools.
- See the various examples in /usr/doc/lazy-admin-tools for the format of the
input file.
