Getting started on central user management (alien.top)

Hello everyone,

I'm looking into a centralized user management for my services to use. Right now I only have Jellyfin but I plan to add a recipe service to the mix for my family.

I've been reading on this and I'm really overwhelmed by the different services.

So far, I'm gathering that I'd need an LDAP server to get started, but if I want to enable my users to password reset themselves, I'll need another service like Authelia.

Are there any guides to help get started ? I'm really going to have only 5 users or less normally.

I prefer Microsoft AD for LDAP, you can then add anything you like for OICD or SAML like Authelia, Authentik or KeyCloack. Why MS AD? Because I have lots of Windows clients, so it’s a no brainer. If you don’t have Windows clients you can use LLDAP or similar.

Authentik will manage users/groups provide an ldap server and do all single factor and multi factor auth. Cooptonian has great guides on youtube.

I use LLDAP for mine. Works great!
