Hey everyone,

How do you do user management, I have a small handful of users that want one password for physical machines and for web apps. I was looking at KanIDM but I was wondering what other people use?

Edit: I would like to only use one piece of software if possible.

I don't have the exactly solution for you, but I went through this a while ago and came up with using openLDAP for this. It's not tidy at all, but it was a tremendous learning experience, and I documented it in 2 blog posts which may be interesting to you; I doubt you'll want to do what I did, but it was informative and has worked flawlessly since. I documented some of the flaws I found in options I considered at the time:
