Lab 3.1: Manage Users

OpenShift Authorization

Before you begin with this lab, make sure you roughly understand the authorization concept of OpenShift. Authorization

Add User to Project

First we create a user and give him the admin role in the openshift-infra project. Login to the master and create the local user with ansible on all masters (replace <password>):

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ ansible masters -a "htpasswd -b /etc/origin/master/htpasswd cowboy <password>"

Add the admin role to the newly created user, but only for the project openshift-infra:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc adm policy add-role-to-user admin cowboy -n openshift-infra

Now login with the new user from your client and check if you see the openshift-infra project:

[localuser@localhost ~]$ oc login https://console.user[X].lab.openshift.ch
Username: cowboy
Password:
Login successful.

You have one project on this server: "openshift-infra"

Using project "openshift-infra".

Add Cluster Role to User

In order to keep things clean, we delete the created rolebinding for the openshift-infra project again and give the user "cowboy" the global "cluster-admin" role.

Login as "sheriff":

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc login -u sheriff

Add the cluster-admin role to the created user:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc adm policy remove-role-from-user admin cowboy -n openshift-infra
role "admin" removed: "cowboy"
[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user cluster-admin cowboy
cluster role "cluster-admin" added: "cowboy"

Now you can try to login from your client with user "cowboy" and check if you see all projects:

[localuser@localhost ~]$ oc login https://console.user[X].lab.openshift.ch
Authentication required for https://console.user[X].lab.openshift.ch (openshift)
Username: cowboy
Password:
Login successful.

You have access to the following projects and can switch between them with 'oc project <projectname>':

    appuio-infra
    default
    kube-public
    kube-system
    logging
    management-infra
    openshift
  * openshift-infra

Using project "openshift-infra".

Create Group and Add User

Instead of giving privileges to single users, we can also create a group and assign a role to that group.

Groups can be created manually or synchronized from an LDAP directory. So let's first create a local group manually and add the user "cowboy" to it:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc login -u sheriff

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc adm groups new deputy-sheriffs cowboy
NAME         USERS
deputy-sheriffs   cowboy

Add the cluster-role to the group "deputy-sheriffs":

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-group cluster-admin deputy-sheriffs
cluster role "cluster-admin" added: "deputy-sheriffs"

Verify that the group has been added to the cluster-admins:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc get clusterrolebindings | grep cluster-admin
cluster-admin                                                         /cluster-admin                                                         sheriff, cowboy                system:masters, deputy-sheriffs

Evaluate Authorizations

It's possible to evaluate authorizations. This can be done with the following pattern:

oc policy who-can VERB RESOURCE_NAME

Examples: Who can delete the openshift-infra project:

oc policy who-can delete project -n openshift-infra

Who can create configmaps in the default project:

oc policy who-can create configmaps -n default

You can also get a description of all available clusterPolicies and clusterPoliciesBindings with the following oc command:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc describe clusterPolicy default
Name:				default
Created:			4 hours ago
Labels:				<none>
Last Modified:			2015-06-10 17:22:25 +0000 UTC
admin				Verbs					Resources																Resource Names	Non-Resource URLs				Extension
				[create delete get list update watch]	[pods/proxy projects resourcegroup:exposedkube resourcegroup:exposedopenshift resourcegroup:granter secrets]				[][]
				[get list watch]			[pods/exec pods/portforward resourcegroup:allkube resourcegroup:allkube-status resourcegroup:allopenshift-status resourcegroup:policy]	[][]
				[get update]				[imagestreams/layers]															[][]
basic-user			Verbs					Resources																Resource Names	Non-Resource URLs				Extension
				[get]					[users]
...


[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc describe clusterPolicyBindings :default
Name:						:default
Created:					4 hours ago
Labels:						<none>
Last Modified:					2015-06-10 17:22:26 +0000 UTC
Policy:						<none>
RoleBinding[basic-users]:
						Role:	basic-user
						Users:	[]
						Groups:	[system:authenticated]
RoleBinding[cluster-admins]:
						Role:	cluster-admin
						Users:	[]
						Groups:	[system:cluster-admins]
...

Cleanup

Delete the group, entity and user:

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc get group
[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc delete group deputy-sheriffs

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc get user
[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc delete user cowboy

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc get identity
[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ oc delete identity htpasswd_auth:cowboy

[ec2-user@master0 ~]$ ansible masters -a "htpasswd -D /etc/origin/master/htpasswd cowboy"
