 +====== Address Book / Member List Sync ======
 +
 +S.A. Proto runs a directory service (LDAP via Active Directory) to make available other services such as the printing and network drives. However, this directory service can also be used as an address book on various devices including your phone and e-mail client, so you can easily access your Proto contacts from your phone or when writing an e-mail.
 +
 +A few suggestions to use the Proto address book include:
 +
 +  * [[https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Connecting_to_an_LDAP_address_book|Thunderbird]] for e-mail
 +  * [[https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Configure-the-Address-Book-for-LDAP-A54CC725-D4C1-48EC-81AB-59A9E556C42B|Outlook]] for e-mail (not tested)
 +  * [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.danielweisser.android.ldapsync|LDAP Sync]] for Android
 +  * [[http://www.dummies.com/consumer-electronics/smartphones/iphone/how-to-configure-ldap-or-carddav-contacts-accounts-for-your-iphone/|iOS]] (not tested)
 +  * Or search for **LDAP <your app/software>** on Google
 +
 +You can talk to our LDAP server using the following settings:
 +
 +  * Host: **ad.proto.utwente.nl** (port **636**)
 +  * **SSL** enabled
 +  * LDAP version: **3**
 +  * Base DN: **OU=Proto,DC=ad,DC=saproto,DC=nl**
 +  * Bind / login with **[[ict:account|username]]@saproto** and your password
 +
 +You can then access the following attributes:
 +
 +  * Display name: **displayName**
 +  * First name: **givenName**
 +  * Photo: **jpegPhoto** (only if set via the site)
 +  * Last name: **sn** (guessed from displayName and givenName)
 +  * E-mail address: **mail**
 +  * Phone number: **telephoneNumber** (only if shared with other members via the site)
 +  * Website: **wWWHomePage** (only if set via the site)
 +  * Home address: **streetAddress**, **postalCode**, **l** (= city) and **co** (= country) (only if shared with other members via the site)
 +
 +You could use the following search filters:
 +
 +  * For members: **(objectClass=organizationalPerson)**
 +  * For committees: **(objectClass=group)**
 +
 +**For who?** This service is only available to members of S.A. Proto with a working account.

 ===== Printing documents ===== ===== Printing documents =====
- 
-If you want to print something, by far the easiest way to print something is by visiting the [[https://www.proto.utwente.nl/print|Print Something]] page on the website. There you can upload a **PDF** and print. All members can do this. Your document will be printed, gray-scale on A4, to the printer in the Protopolis. 
  
 If you have been granted access (access can be requested via the //Association Board//) you can also print directly to the printer in the Protopolis. This enables you to bypass the printing fee and to print directly from your computer.

 ====== VPN ====== ====== VPN ======
  
-**For who?** All members have access to the VPN.+In the past we used to offer our own VPN server for members to use to access Proto systems off-campus. As this was rarely used, it was discontinued.
  
-S.A. Proto hosts an OpenVPN server you can use if you wish to connect to any of Proto'services from outside the campus. The most relevant use case right now is for accessing the network shares from outside the campusYou do not need a UTwente account in order to access this VPN, however, this VPN firewalls access only to Proto services. +If you need to access Proto services off-campus, you can instead use the University of Twente VPNInformation about setting this up can be found at [[https://www.utwente.nl/en/lisa/ict/manuals/network/vpn/|this link]].
- +
-You can log-in using your Proto username and password. +
- +
-You can follow [[https://www.utwente.nl/en/lisa/ict/manuals/network/vpn/|this manual]] to get OpenVPN up and running. Instead of using your UTwente credentials, you'll use your Proto credentials, and instead of the configuration file provided by the University of Twente, you have to use [[https://utils.saproto.nl/vpn/saproto.ovpn|this configuration file]].+

-If you have a special project for which you want to host your own website and/or e-mail, you can request shared hosting space on the web server of the //Have You Tried Turning It Off And On Again committee//. If granted you can use the following settings to use your shared hosting space. +
- +
-**General information** +
- +
-  * The shared hosting environment uses DirectAdmin with Apache, MySQL and Exim for e-mail. +

-  * You'll receive a **hosting username** and accompanying password. +

-  * Each e-mail inbox you configure has its own password. +
-  * **SSH access** to the server is **not** possible, except for the //Have You Tried Turning It Off And On Again committee//+
-  * **Secure your website with SSL**. You can use the DirectAdmin built-in Let's Encrypt module to request free auto-renewing certificates. The //Have You Tried Turning It Off And On Again committee// will check this periodically. +

-**FTP** +
- +
-  * Host: **atalanta.saproto.nl** +

-  * Host**atalanta.saproto.nl** +Shared hosting is provided through SNT Hornet. More information about Hornet can be found at [[https://www.snt.utwente.nl/diensten/hornet.html]]. Due the fact that multiple committees can request this hosting and SNT only provides us with one free Hornet environment, we do not offer the free version of Hornet. Hosting therefore costs a minimum of 10,- per year.
