This is how to add and configure a new user to the statistic web.
There are 2 websites running, http://bookingstats.com on the internal host magrathea and the other on https://statistics.hitchhiker.net on host neptun.
Background of doing this is a security consideration, external user will request a dmz machine with a mySQL server, internal user will use an internal machine with a internal MS-SQL as backend.
Redundancy is a reason too, it is easy to switch between the SQL server if one of them fails.



Overview:



Setup new user

To setup a new user you need to follow 2 steps:

  • Setup LDAP
  • Setup mySQL

Setup LDAP

Setup external user

To setup an external user you have to add the user within the OU External, make the user to a member of statistics




Setup internal user

To setup an internal user within the OU Users' you have to add an Exchange Server attribute, note that you need to do this on the Exchange Server itself
Use Custom attribute4 and set STATUSER


Test the new user


Setup mySQL

Currently there is another (authentication) server in place where the configuration data sits, on magrathea
