Overview

The organization configuration page is a place to change address information for the users configured on the system.

Installation

If you did not select this module to be included during the installation process, you must first install the module.

Why Is This Required?

Information about your organization is used by the system to:

• Generate security/SSL certificates for the system. To name a few features, this is required for OpenVPN, Webmail and the Web-based Administration tool. In addition, you will be able to remove the SSL certificate warning shown in web browsers.

• Generate security/SSL certificates for end users. These certificates are used in [[Modules - VPN Server - OpenVPN | OpenVPN] and can also be deployed for encrypting/signing e-mail.

• Pre-populate the organization information used when creating a new user.

Privacy Policy

The information provided is for your own use. We do not collect this information in any way. You should keep in mind that organization information can be seen inside the security/SSL certificates generated by the system. For example, if you allow webmail access to your server, information about your organization is publicly available.

For home users or people wishing to protect their privacy, feel free to provide fake information!

Configuration

Internet Hostname

The Internet hostname is of the server that end users need to know if they are connecting to ClarkConnect from a remote location on the Internet. Whether an end user is connecting to webmail, VPN or using other services a hostname like gateway.example.com is required. By specifying this hostname on this configuration page, you will automatically generate the required SSL/security certificates.

Domain

Among other features, the domain is used to configure the e-mail addresses for end users. For example, setting the domain to example.com means that a user dave will have dave@example.com as an e-mail address. The domain is also used in other parts of the ClarkConnect system.
