GLPI is an Information Resource Manager that also supplies a webbased trouble ticket system. It integrates very well with OCS Inventory. Additional information can be found on the [[http://glpi-project.org/spip.php?lang=en|GLPI website]].

GLPI is a web application that is written in PHP. It stores it's information in a MySQL-database. We'll use LDAP for user authentication.

=====Installation=====
Debian Etch has a package available for GLPI. Install the software.

For LDAP authentication logon to GLPI as an admin-user. Click on the 'Administration'-icon and choose 'Setup'. A new page will appear on which you must choose 'External authentication'. In the 'LDAP configuration'-section of this page fill up at least these fields

  LDAP Host    your_ldap_server
