One day, it would be nice to have a standard operating environment for UCC clubroom machines. Currently the state of them could be described as varying degrees of broken, partly due to having no defined procedure for setting them up. The purpose of this page is to brainstorm what this procedure should be.
Steps marked with 
require a wheel member, anything else can be done by a winadmin.
Steps to do before/during installation
Add forward and reverse DNS entries for the machine.
Not essential for setup Add the machine to DHCP.
Not essential for setup Add the machine to Samba (create a local account for it on musundo).
Probably only needs to be added in LDAP, and thus could be made available to winadmins via ACLs
During/after installation
Install Windows XP SP2 and configure it to be part of the domain 'UCCDOMAIN'.
why does this require wheel rights? - Install device drivers (graphics and sound most importantly).
- Set up printing.
- Add Winadmins to computer administrators.
Configure WPKG. Install WPKG Client 1.2.1.msi, and load settings.xml, both in //musundo/wpkg
- Turn Windows Updates on to fully-automatic.
- Add static route for 130.95.13.0/26: at a command prompt, type
route add -p 130.95.13.0 MASK 255.255.255.192 130.95.13.65
