Setting Profile Attributes for Clients

The Delinea Client for Linux is a software package you can install on Linux computers to support password management and authentication services for Privileged Access Service users. To support these features, the client has a service user account. The service user requires some additional settings to have a valid profile on the Linux computer where services run or where you are authorizing client-based authentication for access.

To Set Profile Attributes for the Client Service User

  1. In the Admin Portal > Settings >Enrollment to display the

    settings available for Privileged Access Service.

  2. Click Linux Settings.
  3. Select a default shell from the list of available shells to use for the

    client service user.

  4. Specify the template to use for the home directory for the client service

    user.

  5. Click Save.
