#2801 [RFE] Add support for system accounts
Opened 11 years ago by simo. Modified 7 years ago

In time we have had requests to create system accounts so that some legacy services can bind to the directory with a simple username/password to perform some operations. For example password sync services from an out of Realm machine.

This RFE should cover adding/modifying/removing of simple, non-POSIX system accounts only for LDAP only operations (simpleSecurityObject).

Requirements:[[BR]]

  • Password policy should not apply for either of them (#4082).
  • Users should be able to make the system account member of an RBAC role

Duplicate ticket with related information: #3430.

Related (close to duplicate): #4082.

This is no longer a blocker, the respective use case is possible just with normal POSIX users without a password policy.

Patches are still welcome.

Moving to 4.3, we are too close to 4.2 deadline to be able to handle this stretch RFE.
