RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
cli can be used to add a permission:
ipa permission-add ManageUser1 --permissions="read" --type=user --attr=carlicense
But WebUI cannot be used to set a similar permission, where the permission is Read. Allowed permissions in UI are: Write, Add, Delete
Help does indicate:
Read permission is granted for most attributes by default so the read
permission is not expected to be used very often.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.2.0-101.20120117T0229zgit5febffb.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a permission
Actual results:
Read is not a permission that can be selected
Expected results:
Read to be listed as a permission that can be selected
Additional info:
This was a conscious decision.
I added read as a permission type for completeness since it is a possible type in a 389-ds aci. Because we don't provide a facility to create "deny" rules and most attributes are already readable.
The decision was to remove read from the list in the UI and leave it in the list on the cli.
I propose closing as not a bug.
