I vote sex. 20:11 wizzyrea k i will 20:10 jcamins_a "gender" isn't. 20:10 nengard i mean gender ;) hehe 20:10 nengard owen every library i train says it should be sex 20:10 jcamins_a "sex" is binary. 20:10 nengard wizzyrea when you get a chance can you pull the manual from git again - i added yet another appendix :) 20:09 owen What's the matter with "sex?" 20:09 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5020 trivial, P5, ---, oleonard, NEW, on patron record sex should be gender 20:09 owen Bug 5020 19:57 chris Hi alan 19:55 chris Back 19:53 owen My library doesn't do patron photos, so I guess that's why. 19:51 jcamins_a You don't check books out to patrons with similar names all the time? 19:50 owen Huh... patron photos in patron search results.

Type a message, Ctl-D to continue 18:55 cait morning chris 18:55 chris morning 18:54 zico sekjal: ok thanks. After that how can I check that if my Koha server is sending email or not? 18:53 sekjal there is the main.cf file which you may need to adjust to match your local system and network settings, but usually the defaults are pretty good 18:53 zico sekjal: do I need to manually configure any configuration file of postfix? 18:52 sekjal sudo apt-get install postfix will get it for you, and then you'd just need to remove sendmail (if it's installed), and the config will make postfix your default MTA 18:51 zico yep debian 5.0 release 0 18:51 sekjal are you on debian? 18:51 sekjal it's pretty straight-forward 18:51 sekjal nothing written up, no, but I'm working on that 18:49 zico it will be really helpful for me 18:49 zico sekjai: do you have any documentation on setup postfix in Koha? 18:48 sekjal zico: I'm fond of postfix 18:47 zico what do you suggest me to use?

So it's been around a while, but it looks like no one has spotted it. At least I didn't find anything relevant searching bugzilla 18:20 owen why new/old? 18:19 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5051 enhancement, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW, Renewal due date doesn't always show on patron Checkout tab 18:19 jwagner Found a new/old bug, for your viewing pleasure :-) Bug 5051 17:47 rhcl_lurk We don't keep SSN's specifically in our DB, but in those cases where the SSN is the driver's license number those may be in our DB. 17:46 rhcl_lurk I understand that for "a while" drivers in Missouri were able to select to use their SSN as their drivers license number. 17:39 sekjal if you feed the entire OPAC over SSL, it's pretty simple. but you don't necessarily want to do that just for the casual searcher who will never log in 17:38 wizzyrea probably tougher 17:38 jwagner We did a patch a while back to let enhanced content work with SSL 17:38 wizzyrea can the same be done for the OPAC logins? 17:38 wizzyrea so it's not totally bullet proof, but better 17:38 wizzyrea aha 17:37 cfouts there are bugs in that some of the internal links Koha produces will send you back to the HTTP port 17:37 sekjal owen: getting the staff client over SSL can be done pretty easily with koha-httpd.conf 17:37 wizzyrea :) thanks 17:37 wizzyrea lolol 17:37 cfouts it's been there all along 17:37 wizzyrea lol or has it been there all along 17:37 wizzyrea did you really just set that up cfouts? 17:36 cfouts wizzyrea: https://nekls-staff.kohalibrary.com/ 17:36 wizzyrea but it's not documented anywhere 17:36 owen sekjal: Can you elaborate on your reservations? 17:35 jwagner wizzyrea, we've implemented that for clients too. It can be done. 17:35 sekjal but it's not as elegant an implementation as I'd like 17:35 sekjal wizzyrea: we have SSL on a couple of our client's systems 17:35 wizzyrea because well, that needs to be done 17:34 wizzyrea ok, dumb question of the day, because I don't know: can you use SSL with koha? and would it be hard to implement if it doesn't? 17:34 nengard and before that "use encryption to protect SSNs within patron databases," 17:34 wizzyrea ooh thanks for that link collum 17:33 collum in short "Libraries should ... investigate other methods of uniquely identifying patrons and tracing those who have outstanding fines or overdue materials." 17:33 collum There's a small blurb from the ALA on this page. http://bit.ly/dwmwpA 17:33 nengard I would think it would put us at risk if our customers were entering SSNs 17:32 nengard couldn't they all sue the hosting provider?? 17:31 wizzyrea heh yea 17:31 jwagner Haven't they heard of identity theft??? 17:31 wizzyrea I did, they don't care. 17:31 jwagner Tell them it's a legal issue -- patrons are liable to sue the pants off them if there's ever a data breach. And with Koha using plaintext transmission, you can't guarantee security no matter where it's hosted. 17:30 wizzyrea lol no, that was my response to my people here 17:30 jwagner or them? 17:30 jwagner me? 17:29 wizzyrea YOU'RE DOING WHAT??!!!?!?! 17:29 wizzyrea I'm on your side :P 17:29 wizzyrea don't talk to me 17:29 * jwagner pulls wizzyrea aside for a talk :-)\ 17:29 wizzyrea (i"m against keeping that data, fwiw) 17:29 wizzyrea yea, a hosting company should have a talk with any clients that do that 17:28 wizzyrea (our libraries use it to get lost items paid for) 17:28 jwagner I think any company that hosts client data would have a concern with that.... 17:28 wizzyrea heh, they tell me that if the person gives it willingly it's not illegal to keep it 17:28 nengard which probably kept you out of jail :) hehe 17:27 jwagner wizzyrea, I had a major problem with a site I'm implementing now because the ONLY available data from the registrar was SSN and I flatly refused to load it. 17:27 nengard even health insurance companies can't use our SSN anymore 17:27 wizzyrea I sure hope so 17:27 nengard isn't that illegal??? 17:27 wizzyrea kill me now. 17:27 wizzyrea we have libraries putting the SSN in our databases. O M G. 17:26 wizzyrea well i think we're going to have to look into ssl anyway, for the staff client 17:24 wizzyrea yea, which is easier. 17:24 owen Or train your patrons to close the browser when they log out 17:24 wizzyrea you're right, that probably is the only solution 17:24 wizzyrea my people want to make it as secure as a bank site. 17:24 owen But I think the only solution is to use SSL 17:23 owen Yes, and gotten complaints about it 17:23 wizzyrea so say you're logged in, and you click log out 17:23 wizzyrea info* 17:23 wizzyrea has anybody noted the fact that logged out patrons, if you hit the back button, it still shows your account inof 17:23 jwagner Drat, chris_n isn't online.... 16:51 dritan thanks 16:50 owen dritan: That link is for you :) 16:48 wizzyrea http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/searching/ 16:48 dritan yes im using 16:47 dritan my koha version is 3.00.06 16:47 owen dritan: What version of Koha, and are you using Zebra? 16:47 dritan opac and admin 16:47 dritan when i add new record. i desnt show in my library 16:45 jwagner It's a very crafty bug -- they're learning to hide in the dark corners, you know.... 16:45 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5048 normal, P5, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED, Error in bottom menu/submenu for select language in intranet 16:45 owen The worst part of bug 5048 is that I should have caught it and fixed it before 3.0. 16:38 owen Ask away dritan 16:34 dritan i have some questions 16:33 dritan is anybody here 16:33 dritan hello 16:28 jwagner Took me a while to figure out why testing the links kept going back to the old server :-( 16:28 jwagner Instead of hardcoding the full server URL for a predefined search, they just needed to start with /cgi/koha whatever 16:28 * owen has been bitten by that bug 16:27 jwagner Something someone did as a customization, that doesn't work when you transfer to a different server, sigh. 16:25 owen ? 16:22 * jwagner grumbles at hardcoded URLs in OPAC text blocks instead of relative links 16:06 nengard wait - i know that name :) hi cfouts!! 16:04 wizzyrea too true :) 16:04 cfouts hi, wizzyrea. long time, no irc. 15:56 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5048 normal, P5, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED, Error in bottom menu/submenu for select language in intranet 15:56 * owen grumbles at the TMPL tangle of Bug 5048 15:54 wizzyrea :D 15:54 wizzyrea cfouts! hey! 15:54 cfouts howdy, owen 15:50 owen Hi cfouts 15:24 druthb hi, cait! :D 15:24 cait hi druthb :) 15:24 cait hi jwagner 15:23 jwagner Hi cait 15:23 cait hi all 15:10 wizzyrea anyway, thanks owen 15:10 wizzyrea an opac 15:10 wizzyrea I have a opac re-design percolating (the header/sidebar stuff) 15:09 owen Right on 15:08 wizzyrea ^.^ 15:08 wizzyrea http://staff.nexpresslibrary.org 15:01 * wizzyrea is having a third monday in a row 15:01 wizzyrea der, lol, I'll look at the original 15:01 owen The one in my example, or the original? 15:01 wizzyrea and height, for that matter 15:01 wizzyrea just curious, what's the width of the graphic you're using? 14:58 owen ...and surprised no one had ever asked before now 14:57 owen I was surprised at how nice it looked :) 14:55 * wizzyrea goes to change the NExpress one 14:55 wizzyrea and I bet your koha login has an Athens county logo on it now ;) 14:54 wizzyrea owen++ you are so helpful.
