[ovirt-users] user permissions

Hi,

In our 3.4.3 environment I started adding external users (it is 
connected to a freeipa server) and I'm having some problems setting the 
correct permissions.

When I give all user roles to a user, I cannot create a vm and get an 
error "User is not authorized to perform this action". I tried setting 
it on the system level, DC level and cluster level.

I needed to give this user an administrator role with only exactly the 
same vm and disk permissions (nothing extra) and things work ok, but he 
can now login to the admin portal. So I blocked it with a .htaccess 
which is not the prettiest solution.

Am I doing things wrong?

Also the user disappeared from the "System permissions" overview but can 
still login, which is a bit weird.

Kind regards,
