Creating a new company on SAAS server (Abe)

1. Follow directions for creating new company on sam
2. Create a test company, also using the above procedure.
3. Conset into each company (live and test) and make sure they have a company group set (on page 2):

   Is Company a DEMO Company (stop send emails)....... : Backend type (File or Database name)............... : File Company Group...................................... : COMPANY 

   In the above example, we called the company group "COMPANY". It is important you set this to a unique value. It determines what company they can change to. The above has changed. We need to set up an allowable company prefix in empxaad.
4. Remove the contrl symbolic link.
5. Follow [:addusr:these directions] in order to add as many users as required.
6. Check the /etc/inittab file and make sure none of the vnc sessions exceed 99. If it does, manually make the corrections.
7. Update the vnc details and password in the ccll company (debtor notes).
8. Edit the file /etc/group and add an entry (use their company name in lower case) at the bottom. Increment the last used GID by 1.

   sarissa:x:3239:ccc,lp,monavale,annan,mos zebra:x:3240:ccc,lp,zebra1,zebra2,zebra3,zebra4,zebra-canberra,zebra-tracey urban:x:3241:ccc,lp,uclp,ucmt,uclk,ucho temples:x:3242:ccc,lp,temples1,temples2,temples3 company:x:3243:ccc,lp,john,luke,matthew

9. Make sure lp and ccc are members of this new group. Add all the users created in step 5 to this entry.
10. Make sure the company directory for both the live and test companies belong to this group and is not world readable:

    cd $CCDIR chgrp company COMPANY COMPTEST chmod 770 COMPANY COMPTEST

    This ensures that no one else from another company in the same server will be able to access their company directory.

11. Set up their printers by following [:InstallingPrinter:these directions]. In system-config-printer (or printconf), under access control tab:

    Access control _ Allow printing for everyone except these users: X Deny printing for everyone except these users: ______________________________________________________ |@company_______________________________________|_ADD_| 

    Place their company group after the at sign (@). This tells cups to only let members of this group print on this printer. It prevents another company from printing on their printers.
12. Test connecting into the connections you created and make sure they all work.
13. Set up ["OpenVPN"] on the server and on the client computer.
14. Set up winscp on the client computer and save the session on it.
15. setup .controlrc as required
16. Add relevant entry to SaaS alias on sam
