Additional System Permissions
There are a few permissions that are unique to systems. These permissions can be set for individual systems, sets of systems, or globally for all systems.
If you are working with systems, you can set the following additional permissions:
-
Select Manage Session to allow users to watch or terminate active
sessions on systems.
-
Select Agent Auth to allow users to authenticate and log on to systems
where the Delinea Client is installed. The Agent Auth permission
enables users who have an account on the Privileged Access Service to log on
to a registered Linux or Windows computer. For example, if your organization
uses Privileged Access Service, you might have user account defined for each
employee or for employees in specific roles. You can enable all employees or
employees in the selected roles to log on to the Admin Portal using their
Privileged Access Service user account and to use
that same account to log on to registered Linux or Windows computers if they
are granted the Agent Auth permission on that registered Linux or
Windows computer.
-
Select Request Zone Role to allow users to request access to a
collection of rights for computers in a zone. The Request Zone Role
permission allows a user to request assignment of a particular Privileged
Access Service zone role to use the elevated privileges associated with the
role on the computers in a domain or zone.This permission requires several
preliminary steps to be completed. For example, you must enable the zone
role workflow for the domain and configure the list of zone roles that can
be requested by a user, the system must be joined to a zone, and the
requesting user must be an Active Directory user. For more details about the
preliminary steps for using this feature and permission, see Managing zone
role assignment requests and related topics. For an introduction to rights
and roles, role assignments that do not use a request and approval workflow,
and managing privilege elevation for computers in zones, see Welcome to Server Suite.
-
Select Add Account to allow a user to add Privileged Access Service
accounts to a system. If this system permission is not selected, attempting
to add a new account to a system will fail.
-
Select Unlock Account to allow accounts (used to access a system) the
permission to manually unlock managed local accounts. This permission only
applies to systems with the correct policies in place for local account
password reconciliation. See Configuring Windows Local Account Reconciliation.
