OpenVPN Config Export (and other) permission won't show VPN menu
-
Hi,
we wanted to test a user for 1st level supporters, so they can e.g. create user certificates, add users and export those user's VPN config.
Problem is:
- Certificate permission grants that user the menu System / certificates - check
- Freeradius permission lets them see Services / Freeradius and create users - a bit more than I'd like but OK, check.
- OpenVPN client export gets them the client export page as "default dashboard". But: when you leave that page, the user does not have any privilege to see the "VPN" menu or "OpenVPN" under that.
So essentially either you have to bookmark the client export page or log out and back in to get it back. VPN menu won't show.
It also won't show if the user has CSO permission, Client permission etc. - only when you give it Server permission, the menu shows up. But that opens up the VPN server for editing and we want to minimize the error margin.So is there a quick fix, to let the menu (VPN)/submenu (OpenVPN) show up when only giving Client Export privileges?
(Screenshot shows problem: after logging in you have the client export as "Dashboard" replacement, but no VPN menu to come back to it later!)
Cheers

Hi Jens,
I would suggest the following: Set the ‘WebCfg – OpenVPN: Client Export Utility’ permission as the user's first permission (i.e. so that it appears at the top of the list).
This will allow the user to access the Client Export Utility via the pfSense logo, as the first permission effectively sets the ‘homepage’.
Best regards,
Hagen
