I have a Icinga2 running with Active Directory as authentication backend and Icinga Web 2 as frontend.
The frontend permissions can be configured using the roles.ini
in Icingaweb2's config folder. This is what I have in there:
# roles.ini
[Users]
users = "*"
permissions = "module/monitoring"
As you can see, I want to give all authenticated users access to the monitoring module. I have no group, which contains all users so I cannot use a group for that.
This does not work. How is the correct syntax to give the permission to all users?
(Of course, using existing user names or group names does work, backend configuration therefore is correct.) Thank you very much in advance!
This feature was implemented in IcingaWeb2 version 2.5, see https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2/pull/3096. It's a very simple patch against AdmissionLoader.php
, which you can also apply separately by hand:

Apply role to all users if the role is defined with users=*
If the users directive contains at least one single asterisk, the role is applied to all users.
So, this supports roles which define users=username, ..., * and users=*
