The whole theta42 identity, access, and secrets stack in one repo, brought up

Theta Suite is your one-line solution to replacing fragmented, hard-to-wire

with a single command — for home labs and small businesses.
|
authentication setups with a unified security stack. It wires together OIDC
|
||||||
|
authentication, LDAP user directories, automated host enrollment, and
|

centralized secret management in a single command. It eliminates the manual

configuration friction so you get secure access, auditability, and multi-site

replication running in seconds.

* **DevOps & Systems Operators:** Engineers who value idempotent, single-command

## Why this over running them separately
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The components are designed to integrate — they're only useful together once
|
|
||||||
the proxy is registered as an OIDC client of the SSO *and* pointed at the
|
|
||||||
SSO's LDAP directory — and the domain has to match across half a dozen config
|
|
||||||
fields, or logins silently fail. Doing that by hand is fiddly. `setup.sh`
|
|
||||||
asks for your domain once, generates both apps' config with it filled in
|
|
||||||
everywhere, registers the proxy as an OIDC client automatically, and
|
|
||||||
snapshots state before every rebuild.

LDAP-native apps authenticate against the same directory.

|
PAM/SSSD for login, applies sudo policies, distributes SSH public keys, and
|

registers host telemetry in the primary inventory dashboard.
|
||||||
|
- **Directory-Driven SSH Jump Host**: A centralized bastion host that routes
|
||||||
|
inbound terminal traffic (`ssh uid_-_host@jump.<domain>`) using active
|

|
directory group memberships. Supports WinSCP, file transfers, interactive
|

host pickers, and a dedicated audit interface for tracking user sessions and

connection metrics.

against an embedded [OpenBao](https://openbao.org/) instance to load tokens

and cryptographic keys at runtime. Provides per-user secret vaults and enables
