Hi guys.

When integrating Samba with 'ipa-adtrust-install' the process asks:

Do you want to run the ipa-sidgen task?

I wonder why that is optional?
Every subsequent run 'ipa-adtrust-install' or when repeated on other masters does not pause with that question.

If you have a lot of entries, running this task will take a lot of
resources. It is better to have this done at the moment where you have planned it to be done, may be on the replica you designed it to do on.


Thanks. It's business logic of the whole thing which puzzles me a bit - are SIDs (and all that 'ipa-sidgen' does) not absolutely essential for Samba(and the rest) to work?

SIDs are essential for SMB protocol and MS-PAC extensions of Kerberos
tickets.

We decided to make sure system administrators give explicit concent for
a potentially disrupting sidgen task. In busy massive deployments it
matters more than denying access to services which aren't deployed yet.
