It's sooooooo awesome <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span> I can secure an index for a group of users in no time!</P> <P>When I move this to production, I will no longer benefit from vi etc/system/local/authentication.conf privileges and thus I am looking for a solution to modify and further configure role mapping on a live system I cannot ssh/vi into.</P> <P>I would be very grateful if you could point me to any REST API calls or web settings that I miss.</P> <P>Thank you!</P> Fri, 09 Jan 2015 21:34:03 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-to-configure-LDAP-role-mapping-remotely/m-p/180461#M5339 jeanmatthieu 2015-01-09T21:34:03Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-to-configure-LDAP-role-mapping-remotely/m-p/180462#M5340 <P>Role-mapping and related settings are manageable from splunk web with proper permissions under Settings-&gt;access controls then Roles or Authentication Method, depending on what you need to do.
