Access Control Plugin

[Greg Plamondon]

@Fernando-Gietz ok, Thanks. Is there any way that i can remove the ability to see the Domain password in the Active Directory section of the host settings?

[Lee Rowlett]

@Greg-Plamondon you would need to use hooks to achieve this.

look at removehosteditgen.hook.php in hooks folder on webserver

[Greg Plamondon]

@Lee-Rowlett said in Access Control Plugin:

removehosteditgen.hook.php

Lee, I searched everywhere for that file and cannot find it.

[Lee Rowlett]

@Greg-Plamondon apologies i thought this was part of main code.

save below code in /var/www/html/fog/lib/hooks/removehosteditgen.hook.php

this is just to get you going, change data and template number to the right id that is relevent for what you want to remove and remove/comment out what you don’t want removing. read up about hooks on wiki. if you get stuck i’ll happily assist when i can to meet what you originally asked for etc but it’s worth you having a go yourself to understand how hooks function.

hope this helps

<?php
class removehosteditgen extends Hook {
    public $name = 'removehosteditgen';
    public $description = 'Remove unused fields in host edit general';

@Lee-Rowlett Thanks!

For anyone interested, here is a working example of how to hide the Domain Password field.

1. Create a new empty file named /var/www/html/fog/lib/hooks/hideadhostdata.hook.php
2. Change ownership: chown apache:apache /var/www/html/fog/lib/hooks/hideadhostdata.hook.php (this is for CentOS, use chown www-data:www-data ... for Debian/Ubuntu)
3. Copy and paste the following code to that file and save it:

<?php
class hideadhostdata extends Hook {
    public $name = 'hideadhostdata';
    public $description = 'Hide some of the AD information in host edit view';
    public $author = 'SR';
    public $active = true;
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
        self::$HookManager
            ->register(
                'HOST_EDIT_AD', 
                array($this, 'hideADHostData')
            );
    }
    
    public function hideADHostData($arguments) {
        if ($_REQUEST['node'] == 'host' && $_REQUEST['sub'] == 'edit') {
            unset($arguments['data'][5],$arguments['template'][5]); // Domain Password
        }
    }
}
?>

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you!

@Sebastian-Roth
Hey just wanted to post an update, I ran into one problem with this method. If you click the clear fields and then save, and then set the checkbox for “Join Domain after deploy” it doesn’t save the AD password to the database its left null

[Tom Elliott]

@Greg-Plamondon That’s mainly because the field is completely missing and removed from the view. This means that when you submit, the hosts in question don’t get updated.

[Sebastian Roth]

@Greg-Plamondon Good point. We are working on a better solution to this anyway. See here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/issues/337

[Greg Plamondon]

@Tom-Elliott I have access to the DB so I can work around it.

[Lee Rowlett]

what if you cleared the template but not the data?
