Hey everyone,

How do you do user management, I have a small handful of users that want one password for physical machines and for web apps. I was looking at KanIDM but I was wondering what other people use?

Edit: I would like to only use one piece of software if possible.

    I use an LDAP server, as it’s pretty much designed for exactly this task. You can tell PAM to authenticate and authorise from it to manage logins to the physical machines, and web apps typically either have a straightforward way to use LDAP, or support ‘external’ auth, with your web server handling the authentication and authorisation for it.

    OpenLDAP is a solid, easily self hosted server. If you like working from the shell it has everything you need. If you prefer a GUI there are a variety of desktop and web based management frontends available.
