Debian with LDAP authentication
All members in observium_user
to grant more acces added to observium_admin or observium_global_read
Description
i added a couple normal users and added them to have access to a whole group. when i did that they logged in and saw no devices. so i tried giving them permissions to individual devices and they still couldn't see anything.

The person you need to ask can't see any of these replies. You need to go to the mailing list :>
When providing screenshots you need to provide the entire screen. We can't verify that the usernames match, so for all we know, you're just being incredibly careless 
You are correct i miss read #534. There is no way for these normal users to see any devices
Yes, i believe it is an issue with observium not attaching the permissions at login. The part of the screenshot that was not included is that the user is listed as a "Normal User". so the LDAP authentication is working fine. They are able to log in just not getting the permissions that they were given(cant see devices admin allowed), which is why i think it is a bug. The authentication is working properly. I just didnt know if there is a different way permissions were assigned to ldap users compared to mysql users.
Though, I'm not sure this is actually related to LDAP at all. If the user is able to log in, and Observium allows you to edit settings for the user (which we can't actually verify since you thought it useful to only post 1/3rd of screenshots), it's probably more related to Observium not attaching to permissions to the user at login time, which would be... odd.
This should better be directed to the mailing list where might find someone who has made LDAP work properly.
Neither Mike nor myself use LDAP.
I set it up EXACTLY how documentation states. http://www.observium.org/docs/authentication/ these are the examples that are on that page
$config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Observium Admins,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=COM']['level'] = 10;
$config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Observium Users,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=COM']['level'] = 1;
Mine is exactly like this...
you use incorrect group names, as I see.
group name should be simple name ie "Observium_Admins":
$config['auth_ldap_groups']['Observium_Admins']['level'] = 10;
|
$config['auth_ldap_groups']['Observium_Global_Read']['level'] = 7;
|
$config['auth_ldap_groups']['Observium_Users']['level'] = 1;

I didnt think it was relevant to give the full screenshot since i cant get a screenshot that shows the dashboard AND who is signed in since this information is not displayed. I will post in this mailing list and hope they are more trusting that i am correctly authenticating since i am in fact logged in.
