   HI!!

   I need some help.
   My spouse and i are trying to figure out a better way to track our finances, while using software i can host on my servers, and that is open source. We have a piece of software but it's double entry accounting. So, are there non-double entry systems that are self hosted, open source, and still allow secure access from external systems? We use a LDAP authentication.
   Alternately, any *simplistic* explanations of double entry accounting would be very appreciated. I'm in the process of doing my own research, but any help would be really nice.

   Boosts and answers appreciated!!

     @lindsays one of the simplest exlanation of DEA is this: http://podcastle.org/2009/10/09/pc-miniature-38-accounting-for-dragons/
