It's pretty easy to manage access control in Splunk Web. Users can be given roles (such as admin) and the abilities that come with it.
However, not everything can be done with Splunk Web and sometimes it's necessary to ssh to the Splunk instance (be it a search head or an indexer) and edit config files directly. Does this always have to be done as the "splunk" user? Is it possible to give some admin ability to some users without giving them free rein on the whole config?
