OnionOS user

[MK]

Hi Community,

Has anybody figured out if it is possible to grand the access to the OnionOS to another user (other than root)?

Thanks,

MK

@MK OnionOS / OpenWrt is a single user system, you can install a package to permit creation of users ad groups. So then it comes down to the permissions you create on whatever package you want to use. I haven't used the OnionOS stuff for a few years but as I recall it uses the the ubus acls ( @Lazar-Demin might correct me ). I use it with mod-ubus, here are my steps to create a user named admin:

# Setting up for mod-ubus (php configuration)
cd /usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/
vi adminuser.json

{
        "adminuser": {
                "description": "Administrative user access role",
                "read": {
                        "ubus": {
                                "session": [
                                        "access",
                                        "login"
                                ]
                        },
                        "uci": {
                                        "system": ["timezone", "zonename"],
					"wireless":["*"]
			
			}
                },
                "write": {
                        "ubus": {
                                "*": [ "*" ]
                        },
                        "uci": {
					"system": ["*"],
					"wireless": ["*"]
                	}
		}
        }
}

#add entry to /etc/config/rpcd
config login
        option username 'admin'
        option password '$p$admin'
        list read adminuser
        list write adminuser

#update /etc/passwd
admin:x:200:200:admin:/var:/bin/ash

#update /etc/shadow
admin:$1$6Foyv2Pv$G/P624gFKZWld7YZkpQdP1:18278:0:99999:7:::

#set the admin user password using passwd command


/etc/init.d/rpcd restart
