+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to this project are documented here. Format loosely
+follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/); versions
+correspond to git tags (`vX.Y.Z`) and `nodejs/package.json`'s `version`.
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [1.1.16] - 2026-07-18
+
+### Security
+- Hardened LDAP filter and DN construction against injection. All user-supplied values interpolated into group filters (`models/group_ldap.js`) and RDN values used when adding users/groups (`models/user_ldap.js`) are now escaped before being sent to the LDAP server.
+- Replaced `Math.random()`-based token generation in `models/token.js`, `models/oauth_code.js`, and `models/oauth_client.js` with `crypto.randomUUID()` for session tokens, OAuth codes, access/refresh tokens, and client IDs.
+- Replaced `Math.random()`-based OTP generation in `OtpToken.issue()` with `crypto.randomInt()`.
+- `routes/oauth.js` now refuses to start if `oauth.jwtSecret` is missing or still set to the placeholder value, instead of falling back to a hardcoded public string.
+- Rendered docs and Terms-of-Service HTML in `routes/docs.js` and `routes/index.js` are now sanitized with `xss` to prevent stored XSS from malicious markdown.
+- Removed a `console.log` that wrote new-user data (including password hashes) to the log in `models/user_ldap.js`; reduced login-path error logging to `error.name`/`error.message` only.
+
+### Changed
+- Public-release packaging: removed `"private": true` from `nodejs/package.json` and bumped version to `1.1.16`.
+- CI workflow (`.github/workflows/pr-tests.yml`) now sets `app_oauth__jwtSecret` so the test suite can run against the new startup-time JWT validation.
+
+### Fixed
+- `models/email.js`: fixed a template bug where the rendered `from` address used `template.message` instead of `template.from`.
+
+## [1.1.15] - 2026-07-18
+
+### Changed
+- Rewrote `install.sh` as an idempotent git-clone installer, replacing the old flag-driven, copy-based one — `wget -O - .../install.sh | sudo bash` now works the same way it does for theta42/proxy. Installs to `/opt/theta42/sso-manager` (was `/opt/sso-manager`). First run only: bootstraps OpenLDAP with a generated admin password + JWT secret and seeds `/etc/sso-manager/secrets.js` (was `/opt/sso-manager/conf/secrets.js`, hand-filled from CLI flags); later runs never touch LDAP or the secrets file again. `ops/systemd/sso-manager.service` sets `CONF_SECRETS=/etc/sso-manager/secrets.js` to match.
+- `install.sh` now prints the version it's updating from/to (or "Already up to date") on every run.
+
+### Fixed
+- `install.sh` could hang indefinitely on a fresh host if a base package pulled in `tzdata` as a new dependency (no TTY for the interactive timezone prompt), or if the debconf `slapd/domain` value was malformed (a raw DN fragment instead of a dotted domain) — slapd's postinst hangs rather than failing cleanly on a bad domain. Both fixed.
+- `ops/ldap-setup.sh`'s ppolicy-overlay checks used an LDAP substring filter against an attribute that doesn't support substring matching, so they always reported the overlay as unconfigured even when it was correctly set up (stored as `{0}ppolicy`) — the final verification step always failed as a result. Fixed to filter on `(objectClass=olcOverlayConfig)` instead, matching every other check in that script.
+
+## [1.1.14] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Changed
+- Bumped `@simpleworkjs/conf` to 1.2.0 and `jq-repeat` to 2.2.0. The Docker entrypoint now sets the new `CONF_SECRETS` env var to point directly at a mounted `sso-secrets.js` instead of symlinking it into `/app/conf/secrets.js` — the app no longer needs write access to its own `conf/` directory to pick up mounted secrets.
+
+## [1.1.13] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Fixed
+- The new concept docs' cross-links (`concepts-accounts.html` etc.) are the correct, working URL on the Jekyll/GitHub Pages build (where the page's URL is its filename stem) but didn't resolve in the in-app docs viewer, which serves docs at a separate short slug (`/docs/accounts`). The in-app renderer now also resolves a doc's real filename as a fallback, so one link written in a doc works on both targets.
+
+## [1.1.12] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- Three new plain-language docs aimed at less technical readers, replacing the schema-level LDAP/OAuth/API docs as the target of most card help links: **Accounts, Groups & Managers**, **Connecting Apps (SSO)**, and **API Tokens**. Each links onward to the deeper technical reference for readers who want it; the technical docs link back the other way too. The personal-access-token card (previously missed) now links to its own doc.
+
+### Fixed
+- The in-app docs viewer rendered every `docs/*.md` page with a garbled heading and a stray horizontal rule 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 — they're now rewritten to the correct in-app URL, the same way image paths already were.
+
+## [1.1.11] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Changed
+- Moved the help (❓) link out of the global header and onto each relevant card individually (Invite User, Add new user, User List, Service Accounts, group cards, OAuth/LDAP integration cards, My groups, Members of `<uid>`'s group, New API Token) — each now deep-links straight to the doc that actually covers it, instead of one generic header icon.
+
+## [1.1.10] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- A help icon (❓) in the top-right header now deep-links to the doc most relevant to the current page (falls back to the docs index elsewhere).
+- The in-app docs viewer (`/docs`) is now searchable — a simple line-substring search over the same local doc set, no new dependency, still works with no internet access.
+
+## [1.1.9] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- Every account's personal Unix group (its primary GID holder) can now have supplementary members managed from the account's profile page ("Members of `<uid>`'s group", admin-only) — e.g. to share write access to files owned by that group. Uses the standard `memberUid` attribute (RFC 2307 `posixGroup`).
+
+## [1.1.8] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- Group membership is now editable directly from a user's profile page ("My groups" -- add via a group-name picker, remove with a button per row), instead of only from each group's own card on the Groups page. Admin-only, using the existing per-group member add/remove endpoints.
+
+### Fixed
+- The Edit Profile form's Mobile Phone field had a stray `validate=":9"` making it effectively required (submission was blocked with "Please fix the form errors" if left blank) -- it was always meant to be optional, matching the "Add user" form. Removed.
+- A service account's profile always showed `Name: Service Account` -- every service account has the same literal filler given/last name (a schema-satisfying placeholder, not meant to be shown), making them indistinguishable by name. The Name line is now hidden for service accounts.
+- The Users page's Service Accounts tab, and a freshly-created service account's own profile, could appear empty/not-a-service-account for up to 5 minutes right after creation. Creating a user caches it via `User.get()` *before* the route handler marks it as a service account (group membership), so the cached copy had `isServiceAccount` stuck wrong until the cache TTL expired. Now cleared and re-fetched immediately after marking.
+- A user belonging to exactly one LDAP group had their `memberOf` attribute returned as a bare string instead of a one-element array (ldapts's normal behavior for single-valued attributes) -- client-side permission checks (`for(let group of user.memberOf)`) would then iterate the DN character-by-character instead of once, causing pages gated on that group (e.g. Groups) to incorrectly show "You do not have permission to be here." Normalized `memberOf` to always be an array, same fix already applied to `manager`.
+
+## [1.1.7] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Changed
+- **Service accounts unified to one kind.** Removed the LDAP bind-only service account type (the Integrations → LDAP "Service Accounts" card, and its `/api/service-account` routes) -- every service account is now a real Unix/POSIX account with a UID, created from the new **Users → Service Accounts** tab. Email and password are both optional for service accounts; a blank password means no `userPassword` is set at all (the account simply can't bind).
+- **Added a `manager` field to every account.** Multi-valued (a list of usernames), defaults to whoever created the account (the admin who added it, or whoever sent the invite), and reassignable from the account's Edit form. Anyone listed as a manager can edit that account -- same fields an admin can (mobile, description, SSH key, date of birth, home directory, login shell, manager list) -- without needing `app_sso_admin`.
+- `homeDirectory` and `loginShell` are now editable from the Edit Profile form (previously view-only).
+
+## [1.1.6] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Changed
+- Redesigned the GitHub Pages docs site to match the app's own look (dark navbar/footer, Bootstrap 5, Font Awesome) instead of the generic `jekyll-theme-cayman` theme, added a real cross-page nav, SEO (`jekyll-seo-tag` + `jekyll-sitemap`, per-page descriptions, OG/Twitter tags, sitemap.xml, robots.txt), and mobile-responsive layout.
+
+## [1.1.5] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Fixed
+- Bumped `jq-repeat` 2.0.1 -> 2.1.0. `update()` is now trailing-edge throttled (~50ms) even on the first call; `profile.ejs`'s edit-profile flow updated a scope and immediately slid the same element into view, which could briefly show stale/empty data. Deferred the slide by 60ms.
+
+## [1.1.4] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Added
+- **CI**: GitHub Actions now builds the real bundled image, seeds LDAP fixtures, and runs the full Jest suite on every PR (Node 18/20/22) -- this repo had unit tests but nothing ran them automatically until now.
+- **White-label**: `<title>`, the navbar brand text, and the favicon were hardcoded "SSO - Theta 42"/"SSO Manager" despite `conf.name` already existing (it was never actually rendered). New `conf.logo` key added alongside it. Footer attribution is left as-is. Closes [#6](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/issues/6).
+
+### Fixed
+- The bundled default ppolicy entry set `pwdLockout: FALSE`, silently making the admin "deactivate user" action not actually block that user's login. Fixed to `TRUE`, with a drift-correction path in `ops/ldap-setup.sh` for already-deployed instances. A separate, deeper ppolicy-overlay issue remains open as [#68](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/issues/68).
+- `top.ejs` referenced a `/static/favicon.svg` that didn't exist in `public/` (a pre-existing 404) -- now uses the existing logo file via `conf.logo`.
+
+## [1.1.3] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Added
+- `CHANGELOG.md` (this file), backfilled from the release notes for every tag so far and served in-app at `/docs/changelog`. Closes [theta-env#43](https://github.com/theta42/theta-env/issues/43).
+
+## [1.1.2] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Fixed
+- Removed a dead IE<9-only `html5shim` script tag pointing at a domain that no longer resolves.
+
+### Added
+- **In-app documentation**: `GET /docs` and `GET /docs/:slug` render this project's own README, DEPLOYMENT, API.md, `docs/{ldap,oauth,configuration}.md`, and `directory_spec.md` server-side — readable from the running app with no dependency on GitHub Pages, which requires internet access to view. Public, no auth, rate-limited.
+
+## [1.1.1] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Added
+- **Terms of Service is now editable at runtime by admins.** `tos.md` used to be baked into the repo and read once at startup, requiring a code change and deploy to update. It's now a Redis-backed singleton, editable from a new "Terms of Service" card on the admin Dashboard, with the bundled `tos.md` used only as a one-time seed for new deployments. Admins can optionally require all users to re-accept the terms after a substantive edit. Closes [#39](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/issues/39). ([#62](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/pull/62))
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2026-07-16
+
+First tagged release. Establishes the `vX.Y.Z` tag convention that the in-app update-check banner polls against going forward.
+
+### Added
+- Standalone backup script (`ops/backup.sh`) — snapshots LDAP (`slapcat`), Redis, and `./config`, with retention.
+- Admin-only in-app banner that checks GitHub releases every 24h and surfaces available updates.
+- Unix/POSIX and LDAP bind-only service account support, distinct from real-person accounts.
+- Merged OAuth Apps + LDAP Info into a single Integrations page.

 ### What `install.sh` does

-1. Installs Node.js 20.x (NodeSource).
-2. Installs OpenLDAP (`slapd`) with: `pw-sha2`, `ppolicy`, `memberof`, `refint`
-   modules + overlays; the custom `theta42Person` schema (`dateOfBirth`); indexes;
-   `ou=people`/`ou=groups`/`ou=policies`; a default `pwdPolicy`; and the SSO groups.
-3. Installs the app to `/opt/sso-manager` and runs `npm ci --omit=dev`.
-4. Generates `conf/secrets.js` (LDAP/SMTP/JWT) and `conf/base.js` (generic defaults).
-5. Installs `sso-manager.service` (systemd), enabled on boot.
+1. Installs Node.js 22.x (NodeSource) and Redis.
+2. Clones/updates the repo at `/opt/theta42/sso-manager`.
+3. **First run only:** installs OpenLDAP (`slapd`) with `pw-sha2`, `ppolicy`,
+   `memberof`, `refint` modules + overlays; the custom `theta42Person` schema
+   (`dateOfBirth`); indexes; `ou=people`/`ou=groups`/`ou=policies`; a default
+   `pwdPolicy`; and the SSO groups — then seeds `/etc/sso-manager/secrets.js`.
+4. Symlinks `ops/systemd/sso-manager.service` into `/etc/systemd/system` and
+   runs `npm ci --omit=dev`.
+5. Enables and (re)starts the service.

-> For an existing LDAP server, run `sudo ./install.sh --skip-ldap …` and point the
-> app at it. For LDAP-only setup on a host that already runs the app elsewhere, use
-> `--skip-app`. To (re)configure overlays on an already-installed slapd, prefer
-> `ops/ldap-setup.sh` (idempotent, auto-detects the user database).
+> For an existing LDAP server, run with `SKIP_LDAP=true` and write

+title: Accounts, Groups & Managers
+description: A plain-language guide to users, service accounts, personal groups, and managers in SSO Manager.
+---
+
+# Accounts, Groups & Managers
+
+This page explains the concepts behind the Users and Groups pages in plain
+language. If you want the technical schema/attribute-level detail instead,
+see the [LDAP reference](ldap.html).
+
+## What's an account?
+
+Every person (or app) that can sign in through this SSO Manager has an
+**account** — a username, a display name, maybe an email address, and a
+password (or, for service accounts, no password at all — see below).
+Accounts live in the directory this app manages, and any other app you've
+connected (Gitea, Home Assistant, your Wi-Fi, whatever) checks against these
+same accounts instead of keeping its own separate list of users and
+passwords.
+
+## Two kinds of account: people and service accounts
+
+Most accounts belong to an actual person — check **Users → People** to see
+them. But sometimes you need an account for something that *isn't* a
+person: a media server, a backup script, a bind account another app uses to
+look people up. These are **service accounts**, listed separately under
+**Users → Service Accounts**, and they're different from a person's account
+in two ways that matter:
+
+- **No email required.** A service account doesn't need a mailbox, so the
+  form doesn't ask for one.
+- **A password is optional.** If you leave it blank, nobody can log in as
+  that account — which is exactly what you want for something that only
+  ever gets used programmatically (a script authenticating with an API
+  token, or another app binding with a fixed, separately-configured
+  password you set yourself). Only give it a password if the account
+  genuinely needs to log in or bind somewhere as itself.
+
+Aside from those two differences, a service account is a completely normal
+account under the hood — it can belong to groups, have a manager, and so
+on, just like anyone else's.
+
+## Groups: who can do what
+
+A **group** is just a named list of accounts, used to control access. This
+app has a handful of built-in groups that grant admin powers (e.g. only
+people in the `app_sso_admin` group can see the Users/Groups/Integrations
+pages at all), but you can also make your own groups for any app you
+connect — say, a group listing everyone who should be allowed into your
+photo server. Once a group exists, add or remove members from the
+**Groups** page, and point the other app's "who's allowed in" setting at
+that group's name.
+
+## Every account's personal group
+
+Separately from the groups above, every single account — person or
+service account — automatically gets its own small, personal group when
+it's created, named after the account itself. Most of the time you'll
+never think about this; it exists so that, on a Linux system connected to
+this directory, each account "owns" its own files by default the same way
+a normal Unix user account would.
+
+Occasionally you'll want to share that ownership with someone else — for
+example, letting a second account also have write access to files a
+service account owns. That's what the **"Members of `<uid>`'s group"**
+section on a profile page is for: add another account there, and the
+underlying Linux permissions treat them as if they belong to that same
+personal group too.
+
+## What's a "manager"?
+
+Every account has one or more **managers** — the people allowed to edit
+that account's profile (phone number, SSH key, home directory, and so on)
+without needing full admin rights. By default, whoever created an account
+(the admin who added it, or whoever sent the invite) becomes its first
+manager, but you can add or remove managers later from the account's Edit
+form.
+
+This is useful for service accounts especially: if a service account
+belongs to a particular project or person, make them its manager so they
+can maintain it — rotate its SSH key, adjust its description — without
+needing to be a full SSO administrator.
+
+## Inviting someone vs. adding them yourself
+
+From the Users page you can either fill in someone's details yourself
+("Add new user"), or send them an **invite** — an email (or a link you copy
+and send however you like) that lets them pick their own username and
+password. Either way, the resulting account is identical; invites are just
+a convenience so you don't have to know someone's preferred username or
+handle their password directly.

+title: API Tokens
+description: A plain-language guide to personal access tokens in SSO Manager.
+---
+
+# API Tokens
+
+This page explains what an API token is and when you'd want one. For the
+full list of API endpoints a token can call, see the
+[API reference](api.html).
+
+## What's an API token, in plain terms?
+
+Normally, you interact with this app by logging in through a web browser.
+An **API token** (also called a personal access token, or PAT) is an
+alternative way in — a long, random string that a script, a scheduled job,
+or another program can use instead of a username and password, to act on
+your behalf without a human typing a login in each time.
+
+If you've ever set up a script to talk to GitHub, GitLab, or a similar
+service using a "token" instead of your real password, this is the same
+idea.
+
+## When would you actually need one?
+
+Most people never need to create one of these — you'll only want a token
+if you're automating something, for example:
+
+- A script that syncs users or groups from somewhere else into this SSO
+  Manager on a schedule.
+- A backup or monitoring job that checks this app's health via its API.
+- A CI/CD pipeline that needs to register or update an OAuth client
+  automatically.
+
+If you're not doing any of that, you don't need an API token — just log in
+normally through the web UI.
+
+## How it works
+
+Create a token from your Profile page, give it a name so you remember what
+it's for later, and optionally an expiry. You'll be shown the token's
+value **exactly once** — copy it somewhere safe immediately, because it
+can't be viewed again afterward (only revoked or rotated). Whatever script
+or tool you're using it with sends it along with each request, the same
+way a browser sends your login session.
+
+A token acts **as you**, with **your** permissions — if you're not an
+admin, a token you create can't do admin-only things either. If you ever
+suspect a token has leaked (ended up somewhere it shouldn't have, like a
+public script or log file), revoke it immediately from your Profile page;
+it stops working right away.
+
+## Want more detail?

+This page doesn't attempt to list every API endpoint or show request/
+response examples — for that, see the full [API reference](api.html).

+title: Connecting Apps (Single Sign-On)
+description: A plain-language guide to OAuth/OIDC clients and single sign-on in SSO Manager.
+---
+
+# Connecting Apps (Single Sign-On)
+
+This page explains, in plain language, what happens when you "connect" an
+app to your SSO Manager so people can log into it with their existing
+account. For the technical endpoint/token detail, see the
+[OAuth reference](oauth.html).
+
+## What does "single sign-on" actually mean?
+
+Instead of every app you run having its own separate list of usernames and
+passwords, they all check with this SSO Manager instead. You log in once,
+here, and any connected app trusts that login — no separate password to
+remember or manage for each one. If you ever need to lock someone out
+everywhere at once, you do it in one place (deactivate their account here)
+instead of hunting down every app individually.
+
+The technology behind this is called **OAuth 2.0** and **OpenID Connect
+(OIDC)** — you'll see both names used, often together, referring to the
+same thing. You don't need to understand the protocol to use this page;
+what matters practically is the handful of concepts below.
+
+## What's a "client"?
+
+Every app you connect is registered here as a **client** — a single entry
+on the Integrations page representing that one app. Registering a client
+gives you a **Client ID** and **Client Secret**: think of these like a
+username and password, but for the *app itself* rather than for a person.
+You paste them into the other app's own "Single Sign-On" or "OIDC" setup
+screen, along with the discovery URL shown at the top of this page, and
+that app is now able to ask this SSO Manager to authenticate people on its
+behalf.
+
+**Treat the Client Secret like a password** — anyone who has it can
+impersonate that app when talking to your SSO Manager. If you ever suspect
+it's leaked, rotate it from the client's card.
+
+## What are "scopes"?
+
+**Scopes** control what information a connected app is allowed to ask for
+about the person logging in — their username, email, group memberships,
+and so on. Most apps tell you exactly which scopes they need in their own
+setup instructions; when in doubt, the default set (`openid`, `profile`,
+`email`, `groups`) covers what nearly every app expects.
+
+## "Restrict to Groups"
+
+By default, *any* account with an SSO Manager login can sign into a
+connected app. If that's not what you want — say, a home automation
+dashboard that only certain family members should reach — set **Restrict
+to Groups** on that client to one of your [groups](concepts-accounts.html).
+Only members of that group will be allowed to log into that particular
+app; everyone else gets turned away at the login step, even though their
+SSO Manager account still works everywhere else.
+
+## Redirect URIs
+
+A **Redirect URI** is the exact web address the connected app wants people
+sent back to once they've logged in here — it's a security measure so an
+attacker can't trick the login flow into redirecting somewhere else. The
+app's own setup instructions will tell you this value; copy it in exactly
+as given. If the app is reachable via more than one hostname (for example,
+because it sits behind [theta42/proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/)),
+this field supports wildcard patterns — see the inline help under the
+field itself for the exact syntax.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page intentionally skips the protocol-level detail (exact endpoint
+URLs, token formats, claim names). If you're troubleshooting a connection
+or building something against the API directly, see the
+[OAuth reference](oauth.html).

 ## Service accounts

-There are two different kinds of "not a real person" account, and which one
-you want depends on what's consuming it:
+A service account is a normal `posixAccount` for something that isn't a
+person: a media manager, a torrent client, a service like Emby, or a
+read-only bind account an app uses to look users up — anything that needs a
+real `uidNumber`/`gidNumber` to own files, or that other accounts join via a
+group for write access (e.g. a `stuff_manager` group granting write rights
+to a media library). There's only one kind — every account, person or
+service, is a real `posixAccount` with a UID.

-**LDAP bind-only** — for an app that just needs to bind LDAP to look users up
-(its own "LDAP authentication" settings page, or the read-only account
-`theta42/ldap-client` binds as). Not a `posixAccount` — no `uidNumber`, no
-home directory, can't log into this UI. Create one from the
-**Integrations → LDAP** tab's *Service Accounts* section (create, rotate
-password, delete). theta-env's bootstrap creates `cn=ldapclient` this same
-way automatically, and the proxy binds as it — don't reuse the admin DN for
-this.
+Create one from the **Users → Service Accounts** tab's "Add new user" form
+with **This is a service account** checked — it skips the birthday/
+Terms-of-Service fields a real person's account needs and asks for just an
+account name. It's flagged (via membership in the `app_sso_service_account`
+group) so it's listed separately from real people and excluded from "all
+users" notification broadcasts.

-**Unix/POSIX** — for an account something actually *runs as* on a Linux
-host: a media manager, a torrent client, a service like Emby — anything that
-needs a real `uidNumber`/`gidNumber` to own files or that other accounts join
-via a group for write access (e.g. a `stuff_manager` group granting write
-rights to a media library). Create one from the **Users** page's "Add new
-user" form with **This is a service account** checked — it skips the
-birthday/Terms-of-Service fields a real person's account needs and asks for
-just an account name. It's a normal `posixAccount`, just flagged (via
-membership in the `app_sso_service_account` group) so it's visibly marked in
-the Users list and excluded from "all users" notification broadcasts.
+Email and password are both optional for a service account:

-Either way: don't reuse the admin DN, and give it only the group memberships
-it actually needs.
+- No `mail` is set unless you give it one (it never needs a mailbox).
+- Leaving the password blank is fine — no `userPassword` attribute is set at
+  all, and an entry with no `userPassword` simply can't bind with any
+  password (standard LDAP simple-bind behavior). Only set a password if the
+  account actually needs to authenticate as itself (e.g. a bind-only account
+  an app uses to look users up).

-Example bind test (LDAP bind-only account):
+theta-env's bootstrap creates its own `cn=ldapclient` bind account directly
+against LDAP (independent of this app), and the proxy binds as it — that
+account won't show up in the Service Accounts tab since it isn't managed
+through this app, but it keeps working unchanged.
+
+Either way: don't reuse the admin DN, and give a service account only the
+group memberships and `manager`s it actually needs.
