Add conf.ldap.ldapsHost / conf.ldap.ldapsPort so the /integrations page
can advertise an internal-only LDAPS hostname separate from the public
OAuth issuer. This avoids forcing admins to port-forward 636 publicly.
- routes/index.js derives LDAPS URL from ldapsHost/ldapsPort with issuer fallback
- integrations.ejs adds a contextual help panel explaining TLS hostname
validation, the public-issuer default, and recommended internal-DNS /
Docker-internal alternatives
- conf/base.js, secrets.js.example, DEPLOYMENT.md, docs/configuration.md,
and docs/ldap.md document and expose the new options
- Add tests/integrations.test.js for default and custom ldapsHost behavior
- Bump version to 1.1.17

- New docs/concepts-{accounts,oauth-apps,api-tokens}.md -- plain-language
guides aimed at less technical readers, each linking onward to the
existing schema/protocol-level doc for anyone who wants that detail.
Card help links (Users, Groups, OAuth cards, My groups, Members of
<uid>'s group) now point here instead of straight at the technical
docs; the LDAP-protocol-wiring cards (raw connection details for
connecting a 3rd-party app) stay pointed at the technical ldap.md,
since that's genuinely the right depth for that task.
- The "New API Token" card had no help link at all -- added, pointing to
the new API Tokens doc.
- Fixed the in-app docs viewer rendering every docs/*.md page with a
garbled heading + stray <hr> at the top: Jekyll front matter (meant
only for the GitHub Pages build) was never stripped before being
handed to the markdown renderer. Also fixed: cross-doc links
(ldap.html, index.html, etc.) never resolved in-app, since this
viewer serves docs at /docs/<slug> with no .html suffix -- rewritten
to the correct in-app URL, same idea as the existing image-path fix.
Bumps to v1.1.12.

The single header-wide help icon (added last release) pointed at a
per-page doc guess, but a page can have several cards covering different
topics (e.g. Integrations has both OAuth and LDAP cards). Removed it and
added a small help icon directly to each card that has real corresponding
doc content, linking straight to that doc -- Invite User/Add new
user/User List/Service Accounts (users.ejs), group cards (groups.ejs),
OAuth Apps + LDAP connection cards (integrations.ejs), My groups/Members
of <uid>'s group/New API Token (profile.ejs).
Bumps to v1.1.11.

Removes the LDAP bind-only service account type in favor of a single
Unix/POSIX account model, surfaced in a new Users > Service Accounts tab.
Adds a multi-valued `manager` field to every account (defaults to the
creator, editable, and grants edit rights on the accounts a person manages
without needing app_sso_admin). homeDirectory and loginShell are now
editable from the profile edit form.
Bumps to v1.1.7.

The Integrations page's Service Accounts (bind-only, organizationalRole)
don't cover the other real use case: an account something actually runs
as on a Linux host -- a media manager, a torrent client, Emby -- with a
real uidNumber/gidNumber that owns files, and a group other accounts
join for write access (e.g. a `stuff_manager` group granting write
rights to a media library). That needs a real posixAccount, which the
bind-only model can't be.
- New well-known group `app_sso_service_account`, seeded the same way as
app_sso_admin/app_sso_invite/app_sso_oauth_admin (docker-entrypoint.sh,
ops/ldap-setup.sh). Not a permission gate -- a marker.
- "Add new user" form gets a "This is a service account" checkbox: swaps
the person-shaped fields (first/last name, birthday, ToS agreement)
for a single account-name field, since none of those make sense for a
non-person account. On create, the route adds the user to
app_sso_service_account.
- User.listDetail() annotates each user with isServiceAccount (checked
against the marker group's member list once per call, not the memberof
overlay's reverse attribute -- not reliably returned by every LDAP
server this app might point at, confirmed against a real external
directory during testing). Users page shows a "service" badge.
- Notification broadcasts (filter_type=all/all_active) exclude service
accounts by default -- nobody reads mail as `stuff_manager`.
- Fixed a real, previously-unrelated bug this surfaced: addPosixAccount
unconditionally set `mail: data.mail` in the LDAP entry even when
undefined, and ldapts/slapd reject an attribute given an explicit
undefined value ("no values for attribute type") rather than treating
it as absent. This meant creating ANY user without an email already
failed outright -- not something a service account (which commonly has
no real mailbox) could route around. Made mail conditional, matching
how mobile/sshPublicKey/dob already work.
- docs/ldap.md now explains both kinds of service account side by side
and when to use which.
Verified end-to-end against a real external LDAP server (not a local
sandbox): created a service account with no email, confirmed it's
correctly flagged and excluded from broadcast recipient resolution,
confirmed a normal user is unaffected, confirmed the code degrades
gracefully if the marker group doesn't exist yet (pre-upgrade
deployments).

- OAuth Apps and LDAP Info are both "how do other apps/hosts plug into
this SSO" concerns -- merged into a single /integrations page with
tabs, replacing the two separate nav items with one. /oauth-clients
and /ldap-info 301-redirect there for compat.
- Add a Service Accounts section under the LDAP tab: bind-only LDAP
identities (organizationalRole + simpleSecurityObject, no
posixAccount) for apps/hosts, as opposed to real people. Create,
rotate password, and delete, all from the UI -- previously the only
such account (theta-env's bootstrap-created cn=ldapclient) was
invisible to the Users page entirely (filtered out by
conf.ldap.userFilter) and had no GUI way to see or rotate it; the new
ServiceAccount model uses the exact same objectClasses bootstrap.js
already creates cn=ldapclient with, so it recognizes and manages that
account too, not just ones created through this UI.
- The ldap-client bash snippet now points at "create one under Service
Accounts above" instead of a bare textual example.
Verified against a real LDAP server (not just the dev sandbox's usual
unreachable one): created a service account, confirmed it binds
successfully with the generated password, rotated its password, and
deleted it.
