Sure... When you do group mapping, map them to groups that don't have the domain admins in them. I have a separate OU=Groups that has "Splunk Users, Splunk Admins, Splunk Power Users" as group names, and specific users…

I want to give LDAP access to my splunk servcie but I don't want the LDAP users to have admin capabilitys in Splunk. Can I keep the domain admins out of Splunk if I have LDAP authentication???

Deployment on Linux / *NIX
why hello ninja's,
Need a little advice here ... I've searched & searched but cannot find any blog / forum etc on how to install Splunk on (e.g.) 150+ Linux boxes. Am totally aware I could do an MSI with command line options and use group policy or some other s/w dist tool for Windows, but how to do this same kind of thing with *NIX?
Does anyone have thoughts / suggestions / experience with this scenario?

hi,
which distros are you using?
Rhel (and sles) has it own tool to deploy software and/or configurations.
Or you can install splunk using a script and ssh (with key auth) to automate the process.
An other solution is deploy software using puppet/cfengine
best regards

Hello,
What Linux do you have ?
If you have a rpm or dep you can make a remote install script for that.
example: rpm -i ftp://xx.xx.xx.xx/splunk.rpm
or dpkg -i ftp://xx.xx.xx.xx/splunk.deb
Please read also the documentation for ./splunk help
Or you have a existing software delivery software in place to roll out the FW.
regards Alexander
