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).

Auditing mobile/responsive views turned up two classes of bug:
1. Missing .table-responsive wrapper (token.ejs and profile.ejs's other
table already had it): admin.ejs (2 tables), invites.ejs (6 columns),
notifications.ejs (5 columns), users.ejs (7 columns — the worst case).
Without it these overflow the page horizontally on narrow viewports
instead of scrolling within the table.
2. groups.ejs's search/sort/count toolbar was a plain `d-flex` (no
flex-wrap) containing a search input, a <select> with a hard
min-width:175px, and a nowrap count span — on a narrow viewport
there's nowhere for that content to go but off-screen. Added
flex-wrap and gave the search input a flex-basis so it wraps onto
its own line first when space is tight.
Verified: EJS compiles for all five templates, npm test 192/192 pass,
and fetched each route from a running instance to confirm the fixes
are present in the served HTML.
