Kubernetes RBAC: Authenticate Users with Client Certificates
This tutorial walks through creating a Kubernetes user named adeoye, generating a client certificate for authentication, and using RBAC to control access. Steps include generating a private key, creating a CSR, approving it, and configuring kubectl with the signed certificate. The guide then demonstrates binding a role to the user via a RoleBinding to grant specific permissions.
