Linode admin != the party that pays the service: How ?

you can sign up as yourself, then create a new user that only has the "Can view invoices, make payments, update contact and billing info, and will receive copies of all invoices and payment emails " permissions.

That won't stop you from seeing the billing stuff, though.

Hmm… The goal is basically to hide the credit card info from the admin. As far as I understand your proposal will not solve this problem.

Anyway, thanks for your reply & time.

You can still create an additional restricted user with the "Yes - this user can only do what I specify" option. The things you can specify:

> Global Grants * Can add Linodes to this Account ($)

Can add NodeBalancers to this Account ($)

Can add Domains using the DNS Manager

Can create StackScripts under this account

Can view invoices, make payments, update contact and billing info, and will receive copies of all invoices and payment emails

Can cancel the entire account</list> ****<size size="150">Linode Grants</size>**** <list>*   ****All Privs**** - Gets all existing privileges and any future privileges

****Access**** - Ability to manage this Linode, including boot/shutdown, deploying, deleting images, etc

****Remove**** - Ability to cancel this Linode

****Add Extras**** - Ability to add Extras to this Linode

****Remove Extras**** - Ability to remove Extras from this Linode

****Resize**** - Ability to resize this Linode</list> ****<size size="150">NodeBalancer Grants</size>****

* All Privs - Gets all existing privileges and any future privileges

****Access**** - Ability to manage this NodeBalancer

****Remove**** - Ability to delete this NodeBalancer</list> ****<size size="150">DNS Zone Grants</size>**** <list>*   ****All Privs**** - Gets all existing privileges and any future privileges

****Access**** - Ability to manage this Domain

****Remove**** - Ability to delete this Domain</list> ****<size size="150">StackScript Grants</size>**** <list>*   ****All Privs**** - Gets all existing privileges and any future privileges

****Use**** - Ability to use this StackScript

****Edit**** - Ability to edit and publish this StackScript

****Delete**** - Ability to delete this StackScript</list></quote> 

For your tech admin, you can select that he/she only has the Access permission enabled for your specific Linode (or other Linodes you may have in your account).

It is hidden, you can see only the last 4 digits and the exp time, even if you're the only user on the account.

NeonNero, Azathoth:

OK, I got it.

Thanks also for your time & clarifying answers !

You can also go the other way: Have your user sign up for an account and create the node, and give you the admin a user with sufficient access.
