I was putting this off but I'm tired of not having everything set up. Whenever I set up linux I set up a local admin account to get everything running. I then set up ldap for my actual user. This has probably been the most problematic part of resent life with linux and much of the reason I moved to Arch. In Ubuntu they try to auto set up everything, well that half works and getting the other half working is harder than hell because when I used Ubuntu I only had to edit configs for non standard packages. Arch you set everything up, all those cool scripts that Ubuntu has don't exist in Arch. The thing about these configs is that they are generally easy and give you a much better understanding of Linux. I guess I should make another post just for the howto.
