Issue #3748 has been updated by Matt Robinson.

Assigned to changed from Matt Robinson to John Florian

Hi John,
Looks like the ldap user groups notice was as you suspected, being caused by a 
different order.  Please test the branch on this issue 
http://github.com/mmrobins/puppet/tree/bug/0.25.x/3748-ldap_group_membership_comparison
 and let me know if that fixes the errors for you.
Thanks
Matt Robinson

Bug #3748: group membership problem
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3748

Author: John Florian
Status: Ready for Testing
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: John Florian
Category: user
Target version: 0.25.6
Affected version: 0.25.4

My user accounts are kept in LDAP.  On one puppet-managed host, I want to make 
some of those LDAP-based users members of a host-local group.  I gave the 
following a shot:

<pre>
user { "tom":
    groups => "somegroup",
}
user { "dick":
    groups => "somegroup",
}
user { "harry":
    groups => "somegroup",
}

</pre>

Now when I run this the first time, it did just exactly what I wanted by adding 
these users to the group in /etc/group.  However, every time puppet runs again, 
it tries to repeat the process.  I think this is because when it tests the 
current group membership, the groups are listed in a different order -- even 
though the current set and the desired set are identical.  For example, on 
successive runs I see the following logged:

<pre>
notice: //mymodule/User[tom]/groups: groups changed 
'wheel,somegroup,wheel,admin' to 'admin,somegroup,pooch,wheel'
</pre>

I suppose the fault may not be the ordering, but instead with the fact that 
'wheel' appears twice in the current membership.  I dunno, but it keeps the 
logs really busy with these false changes.
