Hey all! I’ve been using HestiaCP for a while now and absolutely love it. Recently needed the ability to collab on email duties but I don’t want to give my admin user login to anyone. Does anyone know how to create a new user and give them access to manage creating/editing/deleting email accounts under a mail domain that I’ve set up under my admin user? Thanks in advance!
Create a new user and move the domain to that user …
Thanks @eris !! My only question is, if I move the domain to that user, won’t my current user lose access to it? I was trying to find a solution where another user could also manage email account on a domain, but I remained the admin user for the domain.
I found your answers in other parts of the forum for the v-add-web-domain-allow-users command but I’m not understanding how that works or if that is the right approach even. It’s telling me “web domain xyzdomain.com doesn’t exist”. But if I do a v-list-web-domain for the user that owns it, it gets listed out. In my head I guess I thought this command:
v-add-web-domain-allow-users thenewuser existingdomain.com
would just add the new user to be allowed to manage the domain but it’s not working for me.
Thanks for your help!
After doing a bunch more reading, I’m guessing the “v-add-web-domain-allow-users” command just enables other users to create sub-domains on an existing domain owned by another user. I don’t seem to see anywhere that it’s possible to have multiple users jointly manage a certain domain/sub-domain. So unless someone has a solution there I’m going to take @eris recommendation and switch ownership of the domain to another user. I’m guessing the workflow would then be that I just impersonate that other user when I want to edit the domain or configure email accounts? Any input on if this is the correct approach would be more than welcome. Thank you!
As admin user you can login in any user account from the “User” interface…
