While speaking with a colleague who is working in a small company he told me, that the lost track about user right management. They had a an excel table where they tracked all user groups and special rights users in the company have. But depending on some changes in the company structure, they got problems.

Is there any selfhosting software to manage usergroups, teams and userrights in a modern UI? It should be abe to set also data owner and so may keep track on non Active-Directory data.

    This is a problem solved for decades by LDAP. There are many, many management and audit frontends for LDAP.

      LDAP is the Linux equivalent of a window domain controller, but it can be used by a wide variety of other systems as authentication and authorisation.

      Linux it’s self can use it too

        I assume you meant “Active Directory”. AD is based on a heavily modified LDAP schema, but they are interoperable. AD adds a LOT of extra functionality on top of the auth part of it, however.

        That’s why I suggested it.
