To Mount or not to Mount, sa c’est la question

Ok, so I finally put the final touches on the software for the client and we moved it to the library!

Now the one big problem arises.

How are we going to get it to authenticate? OS X Server is really hard to authenticate against with Linux. Moez (Probably spelled his name wrong. sorry), one of the computer lab workers, and I worked for most of the period on being able to mount each user’s drive. Well, after 45 minutes of trying every combination we could, we found out that the server uses port 548 (or something) with a secure FTP server. We can now mount drives. All we need to do is log in.

And I’ve started to gather a focus group for testing the computer. So far I have Ms. O, Ms Van Pilsum, Joyren and Monica. I’ll make a signup list and put it out there.
