#1987 [ipa webui] Unable to add external user for RunAs User for Sudo rules
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by rcritten.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=746056

Description of problem:
There is no way to add root or any external user as a RunAs User for a Sudo
Rule.

Use case- Add a Sudo Command - to see httpd error logs. Then add a rule to run
this command. Want to assign only root to be able to run the command and check
the logs. But unable to add root as external RunAs user for this rule

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.1.2-2.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a sudo command - cat /var/log/httpd/error_log
2. Add a sudo rule, allow the command added above
3. Add root in As whom section - for RunAs.

Actual results:
There is no way to add an external user

Expected results:
It should be possible to set up root or an external user to run this command

Additional info:

Martin, Petr. It is possible that this is a framework issue being exposed by the UI, I'm not sure.

It's UI error. There isn't interface for adding external user. In CLI external RunAs user can be added by:

ipa sudorule-add-runasuser rulename --users=externaluser

  Rule name: rulename
  Enabled: TRUE
  RunAs External User: externaluser
