Following are advantages for using temporary credentials:

- Eliminates the need to embed long-term credentials with an application.
- Eliminates the need to provide access to buckets and objects without having to define static credentials.

reflect the change, i.e. they will lose any privileges associated with a group they are removed from, and gain any privileges associated with a group they are added to.

**Please note that when AD/LDAP is configured, MinIO will not support long term users defined internally.** Only AD/LDAP users (and the root user) are allowed. In addition to this, the server will not support operations on users or groups using `mc admin user` or `mc admin group` commands except `mc admin user info` and `mc...

### High availability

A stand-alone MinIO server would go down if the server hosting the drives goes offline. In contrast, a distributed MinIO setup with _m_ servers and _n_ drives will have your data safe as long as _m/2_ servers or _m*n_/2 or more drives are online.

Use the following command to generate a private key with RSA:

```sh
openssl genrsa -out private.key 2048
```

A response similar to this one should be displayed:

```
Generating RSA private key, 2048 bit long modulus
............................................+++
...........+++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
```

Alternatively, use the following command to generate a private RSA key protected by a password:

```sh

mc admin trace --all --verbose myminio
```

# MinIO Multi-user Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

MinIO supports multiple long term users in addition to default user created during server startup. New users can be added after server starts up, and server can be configured to deny or allow access to buckets and resources to each of these users. This document explains how to add/remove users and modify their access rights.

## Get started

### Configuring connection (wait) deadline

This value works in conjunction with max connection setting, setting this value allows for long waiting requests to quickly time out when there is no slot available to perform the request.
