---------------------------------
Hi [~sneethiraj]
Actually there is another similar issue regarding the conflict between internal
and external users with the same username. Internal users' group info will be
overwritten by external users'.
I posted a Jira for that: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1102
Are we also deferring that to next release?
> Option to use custom "admin" username
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: RANGER-696
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-696
> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: admin
> Affects Versions: 0.5.1
> Reporter: Don Bosco Durai
> Fix For: 0.7.0
>
>
> It would be good to allow customization of Admin username other than "admin".
> The reason being, in some environment, there might be another user called
> "admin" and that might conflict with Ranger "admin" user.
> Giving an option to set another name or exclude external synchronization of
> user with "admin" will be useful.
