Issue #2667 has been updated by James Turnbull. Target version changed from Rowlf to Statler
---------------------------------------- Feature #2667: Remove a user from a specific group http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2667 Author: Jos Backus Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: group Target version: Statler Affected version: 0.24.8 Keywords: Branch: Currently, Puppet, at least on RedHat-based OSes has no means of removing a user from a specific group. This capability is needed in order to be able to back out a change like the one below. The specified account may or may not be in other groups so one cannot use `membership => inclusive'. Example: <pre> group { 'dbusers': gid => 881, ensure => present; } user { mule: groups => ['dbusers'], membership => minimum, require => Group['dbusers']; } </pre> One solution would be to use the gpasswd command on RedHat-based OSes which supports syntax to remove a user from a group: <pre> gpasswd -d user group </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
