#6059 non-human accounts SOP needs to be updated
Closed: Fixed 6 years ago Opened 6 years ago by ralph.

The non-human accounts SOP is here: https://fedora-infra-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sysadmin-guide/sops/nonhumanaccounts.html

It talks about creating FAS accounts for bots and setting their type to "bot".

Based on conversations with @puiterwijk and the group in Raleigh, it seems that this is no longer the best practice. Instead, keytabs, or OIDC tokens, or other things should be created. FAS accounts should not be created.

In particular, one of the first things to do is to blacklist the username in FAS. The SOP would benefit from having some information on how to do that.


I just filed https://pagure.io/infra-docs/pull-request/90 which basically replaces the SOP with a pointer to the Fedora Security officer.
