# Introduction

This project is a web interface for Samba4 made using Flask and python-ldap.

It's using the connecting user's own credentials to connect to the

directory and allow a variety of operations.

The goal is to be able to do most common directory operations directly

through this web interface rather than have to rely on command tools or

Windows interfaces.

# History

Around 3 years ago, the Ubuntu flavor for education, Edubuntu, started

working on a server edition, using containers for the various services

commonly used by school districts and using Samba4 as the directory.

Due to limited spare time by the main developers, this project slowly

died but the web inteface developped to manage the Samba4 server still

evolved and over the years, got a bunch of bugfixes and improvements.

As a result, it was decided that this should be turned into its own

project, outside of the scope of the Edubuntu project and be made widely

available.

# Dependencies

 * python

 * python-dnspython

 * python-flask

 * python-flaskext.wtf,

 * python-ldap

 * python-wtforms

# Using

 * Copy manager.cfg.example to manager.cfg

 * Put a random string in SECRET\_KEY

 * Set LDAP\_DOMAIN to your Samba4 domain
