IIAB/local vars.yml
This IIAB XSCE content does not reflect the opinion of OLPC. These pages were created by members of a volunteer community supporting OLPC and deployments.
Below is an example MEDIUM-sized /etc/iiab/local_vars.yml
including a suite of about a dozen Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) server apps — that have been well-tested on Raspberry Pi 3 and similar computers.
The latest/default version is generally here: https://github.com/iiab/iiab/blob/master/vars/local_vars_medium.yml
(Compare: MIN-sized with local_vars_min.yml with ~6 apps, and BIG-sized with local_vars_big.yml ~20 apps)
Please see FAQ.IIAB.IO, specifically: "What is local_vars.yml and how do I customize it?"
WARNING: on small Internet-in-a-Box devices, it's common to want a "Rapid Power Off" button clickable by all users in a clinic or home. Conversely, schoolteachers commonly want to disable this Power Off button, changing the "allow_apache_sudo" flag below to "False".
