"New" Active Directory

It is filled by:

  • Wild Apricot - The membership payment/management system
  • WA2AD - A C# connector written by Ron Olson - user:tachoknight

It currently controls (or will control) access to:

  • Computers - For general usage and tied to various machines that require authorization
