Issue #708 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Affected Puppet version deleted (0.25.4rc1)
Just pointing out that for similar reasons we deliberately restrict the Mac user/group providers to the local domain, even though we do get to still use the sanctioned command line tools rather than parsing the backing data by hand, and even then we've run into the odd issue that has made us consider doing everything by hand. ---------------------------------------- Feature #708: User and Group providers should directly parse /etc/passwd and /etc/group https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/708 Author: Digant Kasundra Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Markus Roberts Category: user Target version: unplanned Patch: None Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: The current user and group providers rely on the Etc module that ships with Ruby to figure out the current state of the system, but that library provides information about users and groups not manageable by Puppet. Instead, the providers should use [[ParsedFile]] to directly parse the appropriate files. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
