User Preferences tab still missing for AD authenticated users?

Hi,

I found this 9 Year old post after wondering why I cannot find this tab when authenticated with an AD user. So I cannot turn off the annoying STRG-C function and other things.

Strange thing is, that this does not happen, when I'm connected to the local SG. If I access an other SG behind an IPSEC Site-2-Site, the tab is missing. Why?

Version: 9.706-9

Any chance to change these settings?

local User admin:

AD User:

  • I'll say it again too - i've seen this often. ;-)
    ... since Astaro .. i think .

    explanation:

    if you have 2 AD users ... one (adm-dirk) with local user-copy (Remotely authenticated [User data updated from backend automatically] Autogenerated) and one without SG-local-copy of user account (dirk):

    there is no user "dirk"

    both users are allowed to use the webadmin.
    take a look to the result:

    user= adm-dirk

    Webadminwith local usercopy

    user= dirk

    webadmin without local user copy

    However, if you also enable "automatic user creation" for WebAdmin, all Webadmin users have the "User Settings" tab.

    auto user creation

    .... really ...

    But mostly we have local copies of the user only, if the user is a VPN-User too. (Created by import-AD-Group or user-Portal)

  • Hallo,

    I've never seen those Shortcut options on any of the dozens of UTMs I've touched.  Is there a command line way to un-hide those options?

    You didn't say which version of UTM you're on.  I'm on 9.706-9.

    FWIW, I just logged into WebAdmin as an AD-authenticated user and got the "User Preferences' tab.  I'm on 9.706-9.

    Cheers - Bob
