doc/man/architecture.rst: User management server. |
32 |
The "user management" server (:file:`usrmgt-server`) is an |
33 |
inappropriately-named program which must be run as root in the background of |
|
34 |
an IVLE instance. It is responsible for performing tasks at the request of the |
|
35 |
IVLE web application, which require root privileges: |
|
36 |
||
37 |
* Activating users when they first log into the system (including the creation
|
|
38 |
of jails and user Subversion repositories). |
|
39 |
* Creating group Subversion repositories.
|
|
40 |
* Rebuilding Subversion configuration files.
