There is an old HP Windows XP machine that was added to the PS1 domain (called RFID-2) that pulls user information from an SQL database on a VM and pushes that information to all the door controllers with a piece of software called [Professional Door Control Management. You can remote into this machine using Windows Remote Desktop using rfid-2.ad.pumpingstationone.org.

A VM on Proxmox Cloud 2 called RFID2 (10.100.11.31, username: ps1user, password: ps1frocksadmin) houses the SQL database so that current members can access the doors. Eventually a job will run that will populate the database usernames, RFID tags, and member status from PS1AUTH.

=What's next=
A USB reader that allows people to determine the RFID tag they have and so they can input that into their user account. Maybe use the original Beaglebone RFID system as it did this well.
=Professional Door Control Management Software Notes=
* The software can be setup to use just the RFID card swipe, a swipe plus a pin (swipe + PIN + #), and typed tag number plus pin (* + tag_number + * + PIN + #)(the PIN an be left blank).
*Individual account must be allowed "Access Control" in the software to turn system use on an off - this can be used to control when memberships end.
*Accounts can have doors added and subtracted from each user's profile (this could also be used to control machine access and or cabinet/tool access)
*All account parameters are manageable through the SQL database
*When parameters are changed in the database they must be pushed to the controllers. The downside is that apparently this an only happen via the "upload" button in the software. Auto-it has been recommended as a tool to automate this process.
