[Bug 82159] Re: Add a mode to landscape-client that allows it to run non-root (and with limited plugins)
It's only documented in the supplied README file I'm afraid. We should add it to the help.landscape.canonical.com site. -- Add a mode to landscape-client that allows it to run non-root (and with limited plugins) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82159 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The way this is handled for OAuth for Launchpad is pretty nice, whereby during the handshaking process you're asked if you want to give the program readonly or write access, and whether it should be able to see private bugs or not. Similarly for say facebook. I realize it's not precisely technically comparable because in this case it is the less-trusted program that's presenting the web ui, but the way it appears to the user may be something to aim for. Perhaps during registration you could just show a message saying something like: Landscape will have root-level control of $machine. You can restrict it to having read-only or limited access by editing $file on $machine and restarting the landscape-client service. To me, root access to my machines is relatively more trusted than my Launchpad account and I don't really want to invert that. -- Add a mode to landscape-client that allows it to run non-root (and with limited plugins) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82159 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 82159] Re: Add a mode to landscape-client that allows it to run non-root (and with limited plugins)
ps, eventually it might be nice to have even finer-grained control enforced on the client - for instance I might want to track package updates and machine performance, but not to tell Canonical's servers what processes are running on this machine or which users are logged in.

Martin: You can specify exactly which plugin you want to run, in the client configuration.

Is there actually a UI for turning this on or discovering it?
