== Task list ==
* New switches
** SWITCH-B32 was already racked
*** Setup a crosslink and gradually moved interfaces across including SFP.
*** Powered down old switch. New switch is on UPS.

* Authentik for user authentication (rather than Keycloak)
** Dan has set this up on sso.sown.org.uk
** Can currently log users into monitor2 (Icinga 2) and netbox.
** Dave has created a source application for Soton authentication ans submitted a ticket to iSolutions for registering an app with Azure AD.
** Can be configured for other applications (e.g. Mediawiki, WordPress, etc.) and for SSH into servers using LDAP.

* Website issues
** Tyler will setup a basic web host as a Docker container on marconi
** Dave will get the DNS for www.sown.org.uk to point at marconi. He will need to check on what currently points as this from other applications first.

= Task list =
== Upgrade AUTH2 to Ubuntu 20.04 ==
Hopefully last ever OS upgrade for AUTH2. So we can completely remove Quagga and BGP.
* Successfully upgraded but included few snags
** PHP 5.6 ondrej package repository needed to be re-enabled and packages upgraded
** /usr/bin/php needed to be repointed from 8.2 to 5.6
** Disabled most strict modes for newly upgraded MySQL v8.0.32
** Kohana's /srv/www/default/application/classes/model/entity.php need to be manually updated to always set <code>$this->lastModified = new \DateTime();</code> in save function. Otherwise Kohana tries to initially explicitly set this to NULL but should not be set so the database can do this automatically because of this config: <code>`last_modified` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP COMMENT 'time the row was last modified',</code>
** FreeRadius 3 config needed re-inserting /etc/freeradius/3.0/
** OpenVPN issues:
*** To be documented
** Apache issues:
*** SOWN's ca.key was too small.
*** More to be documented
* Quagga was successfully removed and now only Bird2 remains which uses OSPF

== New [https://www.router-switch.com/sg350-28p-datasheet-pdf.html SG350-28] Switches ==
* Connected current console cable for Cisco 3750G and was immediately able to establish a session through GW-B32.
* Finish installing (using Ansible playbooks) new GW servers.
* Console interface looks much like that for certain DLink/NetGear managed switches
* Tim upgraded both switches to [https://software.cisco.com/download/home/286288261/type/282463181/release/2.5.9.15 latest firmware] using FAT32 formatted USB pen
* Tyler was able to directly import this device into NetBox

== Rack second replacement UPS ==
* First replacement UPS successfully unracked and placed in the corner of the server room.
* Box for second replacement UPS retained if first replacement needs to be returned.
* Old rack rails for original UPS thrown away (in WEEE cage).
* One of new set of UPS rack rails installed.
* Network module from first replacement UPS moved to second replacement.
* Second replacement UPS racked and powered up with no issues.
* All redundant power supplies server have one PSU connected to UPS, including lear and goneril from OFERTIE project. KVM, GW-B32 and BACKUP-B32-1 also connected on their single PSU.
* Switch not yet transferred. Will wit until next workshop when we have confidence in new UPS.
* Tyler has modelled power connections in NetBox.
* Unused cables with second replacement UPS put in Misc RUB box.
* Unused rack rails, vertical mounting brackets and instruction booklets taken down to Dave's office.

== IPMI monitoring checks ==
No progress

== Move VMs from VMS-B32-1 to VMS-B53-1 ==
No progress

== SUWS Wiki Issues ==
* Still some issues with timelines for SUWS [[Meetings]], [[Outings]] and [[Workshops]] wiki pages.
** No progress
* Links to RSS and iCal feeds do not work
** PHP file for generated simple URLs for these needs to be deployed within Docker.

== Miscellaneous Tasks ==
* Tyler tidied up the various cables in the back of the rack.
* Tyler took photos of front of servers and added to NetBox.

== Task list ==
* Remove excessive RAM from NEW-1 server
* Install new servers with Ubuntu 22.04 on both NEW-1 and NEW-2
* Finish sorting out Marconi restore
** Install Semantic Result Formats MediaWiki plugin and configure. Check to see if Events and Projects pages now work properly.
** Make bespoke version of the Personal Tools and Page Tools menus so they show text rather than just icons in the wiki's grey top menu bar.
** Reinstate the Next Event bar at the top of the page to the left of the social media icons
** Update to Google analytics 4
* Create new VM for managing authentication and install [https://www.keycloak.org/|KeyCloak] using a Docker container
* Migrate VMS-B32-1 VMs to VMS-B53-1 and convert into LXD containers
* Start building new servers into replacement gateway servers
* Add Zepler WebSDR page to WordPress to remove SUWS WebSDR we recently removed as WebSDR at Farnham no longer exists.
** Archive information about the defunct Farnham WebSDR somewhere.

== Results ==

* Google analytics is not active after the rebuild of marconi and will therefore not be migrated
* Wiki semantic forms have been updated which has renabled the timeline
* The projects page has been fixed, required removing the ? symbols before the variable names

Morse sounder/Key Assembly

2018-09-23T18:05:32Z

TylerWard:

== Morse Sounder Iambic Key Assembly Instructions ==

=== Components ===

* 1 x Key PCB (also includes sounder back panels)
* 1 x 1593P enclosure
* 1 x battery holer
* 1 x 3.5mm jack
* 1 x switch
* 2 x AT42QT1011 (capacitive sense IC)
* 2 x IRFML82244TRPBF Transistors
* 2 x 22K Resisitors
* 2 x 2.2nF Capacitor
* 2 * 100nF Capacitor
* 1 X length of ribbon (optional)

==== Tools Required ====
* Soldering iron - ideally with a small tip in order to do the surface mount components.
* Side-cutters
* (Recommended) Helping hands or other PCB support tool.

=== Steps ===

1. Separate the pcbs from one another and clean up any lumps after separating.

2. Check the fit of the paddles into the front panel, there will likely be some points that need filing down to get a good fit it will be quite tight fit as this will avoid putting stress on the rear solver joints.

3. Remove the paddles from the panel and solder the components onto the pack of the front panel.

4. Reinstall the paddles and solder them to the panel.

5. Install the 3.5mm jack and switch and secure with their nuts.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_5.jpg|none|600px]]

6. Solder the wires from the jack to the pads on the panel and also solder a wire from the switch to the VCC pad on the panel.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_6.jpg|none|600px]]

7. Solder the black wire from the battery pack to the panel and the red wire to the switch.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_7.jpg|none|600px]]

8. Cut of the two PCB support pillars on the side of the case with the switch and jack.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_8.jpg|none|600px]]

9. Install the panel into the case and the battery pack into the back.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_11.jpg|none|600px]]

10. Optional: glue the ribbon to the bottom of the battery pack (this can be used to help pull the batteries out) and glue the battery holder into the case.

11. Secure the case together with the screws.
[[File:Key_assembly_instructions_12.jpg|none|600px]]

12. Check for correct operation and use.

=== SOWN tasks ===
* Fit new RAM in [[sown:Sown-vms]]
* [[sown:todo:task/633|Figure out and fix why ttls-eap-mschapv2 RADIUS check is failing on auth2]] - Can this be resolved?
* [[sown:todo:task/660|Fix eapol_test.so on www so works with PHP 7.0]] - gdb ans strace have not been much help.
* [[sown:todo:task/637|review v4 firewall on sown-gw, tidy up and appropriately comment]] - Is this complete?
* [[sown:todo:task/647|Figure out why snmpd is missing on node303 and add it manually]]
* [[sown:todo:task/654|Add check to test whether SOWN users can login to RADIUS-backed services on www.sown.org.uk]] - How can this best be done? Typically when this fails AUTH2/EAPOL-SOWN is not OK but a user end check would be more reliable and could be setup to nag us more often.
* [[sown:todo:task/659|Sort out policy-based routing so www can connect to the sown-git database on sown-auth2 over v6]] - Need to check if this is still an issue.
* [[sown:todo:task/663|Update CONNTRACK, FORWARD and FIREWALL checks so they are associated with HAFW and configured with the appropriate IPs if they are not already]] - These need to be updated to be associated to be for HAFW. They also need to be changed to use [[sown:Backup2]] again. As this save checks flapping when [[sown:Sown-vms]] is rebooted that runs [[sown:Sown-monitor-new]] which is currently used for these checks.
* [[sown:todo:task/626|Build a serial (DS9097E one wire) temperature sensor we can plug into a B32 server.]] - Dependent on [[User:Cmalton]]
* [[sown:todo:task/666|Figure out what to do with node UPGRADEABLE checks]] - We should not upgrade packages on nodes, so this check is a bit superfluous but is there something we should monitor, so we know which nodes need upgrading either on recall on remotely.

T500 Modification

TylerWard: Completed this project

{{Project
|Title=T500 Modifications
|Status=Completed
|Project Lead=User:Sciguy16
|Image=T500.png
}}
The club owns a Tait T535 and a Tait T520C. These were meant to be quite easy to modify for operation on amateur bands, so this is what we tried to do.

Unfortunately the radios where in a poorer state that we had hoped and after much time spent on them we decided that the one we had managed to get working was all we were likely to get working without significant amounts of extra time.

== Conversion notes ==

One of the radios works on transmit. Channel 1 is 145.200 and channel 2 is a shade under 186.000. Receive is unconfirmed, calculations suggest weird frequencies in the 130 MHz range and the 190 MHz range.
TODO: alter the solder bridges to shift RX to somewhere sensible and test.

=== T535 ===

* Can be easily modified for 2m or 4m operation
** Channel 1 has been set to 145.350 MHz with the jumper settings below
** Channel 2?

These are the jumper settings for 145.350 MHz, as per http://www.davidmpye.com/?q=node/17
