Added to master in commit:cce63d86d7ce3965e58d8e57ff19533a3f21b4eb Bug #3748 LDAP group membership Waiting to close ticket until Matt looks at John's final comment & determines if we need to reopen, open a new ticket or....? ---------------------------------------- Bug #3748: group membership problem http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3748 Author: John Florian Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assigned to: John Florian Category: user Target version: 0.25.6 Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/mmrobins/puppet/tree/bug/0.25.x/3748-ldap_group_membership_comparison 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. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
