I have a couple questions...

1) Is there a reason you do not want sync_users to use getent?
2) Did you set "getent off" in the .conf file?
3) Did you change the sync_users command line in /etc/crontab?
3) Can you send the output of running `/opt/opium/bin/sync_users -v`?

As far as I can tell, the force option should work, so I'm guessing that
it's not handling the getent/non-getent distinction well.

Thanks,

Jason
