Yes, you are right.  Didn't read the whole thing.

yes, but this only add more users which can use the whole GUI... I think that he wants to restrict what the admin user can do from the GUI. i.e. add registrations, but not restart services.

Yes there is, in fact it already exists.

# /opt/SUNWut/sbin/utadminuser -h

        utadminuser
        utadminuser -h
        utadminuser -a <username> [ <username> ... ]
        utadminuser -d <username> [ <username> ... ]
        utadminuser -r

        Options:
# with no options, utadminuser prints the list of all users # authorized to administer the Sunray through the Admin GUI.
        -a      # adds specified users to the list
        -d      # deletes specified users from the list
        -r      # removes all authorized users
        -h      # prints this usage

Thanks. The "batch add from file" option looks like an alternative for now. So does that mean that adding additional (i.e. non-admin) users to the Admin GUI is not being planned, or at least will not be ready soon?

There will be nothing in the near future that includes "Administrative Roles".

I'm glad the script is working for you...

There is the ability to add/edit SRDB card registrations using the CLI

/opt/SUNWut/sbin/utuser

Check out the man page "man -M /opt/SUNWut/man utuser"

In the very near future, my dept will be deploying several dozen Sun Rays as Windows desktop replacements (uttsc CAM scripts that point to various RDP sessions depending on card id). To ease the workload of adding new users, our helpdesk staff has offered to assist in the deployment and management of new user sessions. This is easy with the admin gui web page, but does give the helpdesk the capacity to do cold restarts to the service and mess with the security settings, something that doesn't make this sysadmin very happy. At the same time, I would also not be happy if I was on vacation (I'm the sole Unix admin) and I had to remote in to add new sunray users.

So, is there a way to add another user to the admin gui with restricted privileges? If not, is there another way to go about this (i.e. server-side script or something else)?

FYI, I'm using a modified CAM script from Brad Lackey (btw, thanks! It works great!) that reads the 'Other Info' field on the user's smart card to populate the RDP session info. If no smart card is detected, the script launches Firefox in an extremely restricted kiosk mode (I'm using the r-kiosk extension).
