New users
Account creation
When adding new user account it, they should:
- be added to the sudo group
- have a ~/public_html under the group publicweb
- ~/ under the group publicweb
- be given a default password which they are requested to change
The following script will take care of those steps:
#!/bin/sh
u=$1
# create user account
adduser $u
# add user to grops sudo publicweb
adduser $u sudo
adduser $u publicweb
# create ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
mkdir /home/$u/.ssh/
touch /home/$u/.ssh/authorized_keys
# create public_html dir
mkdir /home/$u/public_html
# make user and group of ~/
chown $u:$u /home/$u -R
# change group of user dir to publicweb
chown $u:publicweb /home/$u
# give permissions rwxr-x--x others need to be x for apache transversing
chmod 751 /home/$u
# just allow read permission and traversal for the group, no write to public_html dir
chmod 750 /home/$u/public_html
# make the files created under public_html belong to publicweb group
chmod g+s /home/$u/public_html
# change group of public_html to publicweb
chgrp publicweb /home/$u/public_html
ssh access
SSH from outside the HRO network is done via the Tinc Hub network
To allow ssh access, new users will need to:
- generate a ssh key pair (if don't yet have one)
- ensure the key is generate with ed25519 algorithm, instead of the default rsa
ssh-keygen -t ed25519
- ensure the key is generate with ed25519 algorithm, instead of the default rsa
- add public key to user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
current users
For sanitary reasons graduated students' and past guests' accounts should be deleted.
