I have 2 questions.
1. In the open source version of LakeFs, can we create more than one user? Though I didn't see any limitation about number of users in the documentation, when I access 'Administration' tab, I don't see any option to create users.
2. I see an notification mentioning RBAC is not configured. Can we enable RBAC in open sourc version?

lakeFS OSS supports a single user - cerdentials.
RBAC is provided built in in the Cloud and Enterprise solutions.
However, you can still get RBAC functionality by implementing your own auth server

I configured a remote authenticator following the guidance. But the authenticator response only contains the lakefs user identifier, doesn't it? Do you have any guidance on how I enable RBAC with remote authenticator?

auth.ui_config.rbacexternalv

Just to confirm my understanding is correct as the implementation of authentication and authorisation servers is not well documented:
could you please let me know whether it is possible to create multiple users with oss if we implement authentication server and authorisation server. If it is not possible, can you help me understand how RBAC works with a single user.

Yes. In fact, if you just want multiple users it is enough to implement just the authorization. If you want to authenticate vs. an external server you will need the external authentication service as well
