Good Evening Linoders;

I would love to be able to add a user to manage my Linode that is an existing user account. For example: I have an account with 2 Linodes for work, and another account with my personal Linode. I want to add my personal account so I can manage them all with a single login, butstill keep billing separate. I'm sure I can't be the only one who uses Linode for both work and pleasure :)

+1. I think I have... 5 or 6 Linode manager logins now. I've been able to keep the naming consistent (rtucker_clientname), but it's a bit of a pain in the buttocks, especially when the account is owned by a client of my client.

Less of a pain in the buttocks than doing it the other way, of course, but still a pain :-)

I'm sure I'll need this at some point.

How is this different to adding a new user and giving them access to manage just a subset of your nodes?

(just asking)

Say you have 5 different clients, they have to create new users to grant you access so you have 5 new accounts to remember the login details for.

If they can simply add an existing account that's one set of credentials across all clients.

I take it by the age of this thread this feature isn't going to happen?
