Hello, Freebsd-security.
I have chicken-adn-egg problem with wheel group and su utility when
all users but root are stored in LDAP.
wheel group should be in /etc/group to allow basic system services
to start before LDAP is available.
But when "wheel" is in /etc/group with only "root" member (as all
other members are in LDAP), system never takes "wheel" members from
LDAP (because /etc/group has priority) and "su" doesn't work!
What is proper way to resolve this problem?
I don't have system to test this now, but you can try below config in your
nsswitch.conf
group: files [success=return notfound=continue] ldap
passwd: files [success=return notfound=continue] ldap
I didn't meet this problem in my last company's environment
