Yes, agreed for user management. The console is extensible in that regard but you have to write Java code and the process is not documented very well. Or you have to use the advanced entry editor to add specific objectclasses and attributes.Just suggestions, if your destop is Windows based, then ldapadmin is a very powerfull tool and a lot more easy to use then the Console. It has plugins, for example for SUDO, postfix, samba, and more. You can't compare it with the console.
The console is also used for server management tasks such as replication config and monitoring, database backend and suffix config and monitoring, other types of entry creation (Groups, Roles, Class of Service, et. al.), log config and monitoring, TLS/SSL management, and more. Almost all of these functions are specific to Fedora Directory Server and it's unlikely a third party tool would be able to do all of them - but they could, because almost all of this is done over LDAP or via CGIs.
If you use phpldapadmin, you can do it from everywhere, idependent of the client operating system, it also has plugins. If you wan to use the console, normally, you need an X session somewhere.Para "General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server solarflow99 project." <solarflow99@xxxxxxxxx> <fedora-directory-users@xxxxxxxx Enviado por: om> fedora-directory-users-b cc ounces@xxxxxxxxxx Asunto 05/03/2008 08:07 p.m. Re: Adding users to additional Linux/Posix groups Clasificación Por favor, responda a Uso Interno "General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project." <fedora-directory-users@ redhat.com>I have no idea why you need to suggest a different front end for FDS. I was the one that asked about the groups, and as far as I can tell all he has to do is add the user to the various groups he wants right from the console. Just click on groups in the tree, and add members.

This is far more involved then my question (and I didn't find the answer, either). I am looking to simply add a Linux user to more than one Posix group. I've searched through the docs and have yet to find a clear simple explanation of how to do this. Do I just use commas to separate on the value in the existing posix group attributes?
