SSSD 1.16 and issue with private group
Issue
- We're running into an issue with the auto private groups feature which was added in SSSD. As the auto private groups feature
was specified in the RFE https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1327705, SSSD was to automatically create the group on the client only if the user object's uidNumber and gidNumber are the same in AD. What we are seeing, however, is that the private group is being created regardless of the gidNumber. For example:
$ aduser --query --user myuser | egrep '^uid|uidNumber|gidNumber|gecos'
uid: myuser
uidNumber: 153313906
gidNumber: 183244178
gecos: myuser
With older SSSD:
$ id myuser
uid=153313906(myuser) gid=183244178(biggroup) groups=183244178(biggroup)
With SSSD 1.16 and auto private groups:
$ id myuser
uid=153313906(myuser) gid=153313906(myuser) groups=153313906(myuser),183244178(biggroup)
