> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: admin
> Reporter: Tristan Stevens
> Priority: Major
>
> Configuring Ranger admin via the current mechanism (environment variables for
> initial user and then password stored in the database) could be considered
> insecure.
> Instead, it should be possible to switch off this behaviour and configure
> LDAP authentication/authorization to the Ranger admin UI and to specify an
> LDAP group for whom admin level privileges are required.
