[Users] Creating oVirt users
Hello, How do I create users? I see where to add users and create roles, but can't figure out how to get users on the add user list. Thanks in advance! Drew
Hi Drew, In order to be able to add users, you will have to use the engine-manage-domains tool and setup a domain. a domain uses kerberos authentication and LDAP for authorization. engine-manage-domains supports several ldap vendors , among are - active directory, IPA, RHDS, openLdap. once will add a user at a given domain that will be used to authenticate during searching for users and groups. For example, if you have a domain named example.com, which is which has a machine a.example.com which co-hosts ldap server (IPA) + KDC, and the dns records for kerberos and ldap are properly set, and you will like to add user named "myuser" then you can use : engine-manage-domains add --user=myuser --domain=example.com --provider=IPA. if you want to be able to login with this user, and not just with the admin of of "internal", please also specify --add-permissions Hope this helps, Yair ----- Original Message -----

Great, thanks! This gives me a direction. I knew I was missing something that I couldn't create an internal user. Drew On Mon, Feb 24, 2014 at 7:00 PM, Yair Zaslavsky <yzaslavs@redhat.com> wrote:
