UIDs of newly created users are in a different POSIX ID range from previous users

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Existing AD user (alice) is allocated UID 225059343. New user (bob) is allocated UID 1293009465 from a different range.

    alice -> rid: 59343  -> UID: 225059343
    bob   -> rid: 209465 -> UID: 1293009465
    
  • What can be done to ensure that both users and subsequently created users are allocated UIDs from the same range which starts with 225?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 9
  • SSSD direct integration with Microsoft Active Directory (AD)
