Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have 2 x TrueNAS boxes, and because I am doing replication between them, I need to keep the UID's and GID's the same between them for accounts that are needed on both ends

This leads to a situation where I must great all accounts on both sides, which gets a bit annoying.

There is also situations where I need to update accounts, like my wifes account, but she has no access to TrueNAS, so I need to get to her type her password in, twice. A bit annoying

I'd love a way to have a central account repository with a self serve password changing UI so people can change their password, and have it all sync between TrueNAS. Ideally the accounts would stay on TrueNAS, so if the SSO solution dies, all the accounts stay

Does this exist?

Authentik (https://goauthentik.io/) is nice and simple.

OpenLDAP can do this for you, and it has nice web interfaces that allow for self-serve account management and much much more.
