Issue #19005 has been updated by Matthaus Owens.
Yea still a bug. You (or I) can update the description of the issue to more accurately reflect the problem. ---------------------------------------- Bug #19005: Useradd does not remove groups when 'inclusive' https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19005#change-82365 Author: John Moser Status: Needs More Information Priority: High Assignee: John Moser Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 3.0.2 Keywords: Branch: This is not a duplicate of #2249 I have some such block: user { $title: ensure => present, name => $name, gid => $gid, groups => $totalgroups, uid => $uid, comment => $comment, shell => $shell, managehome => true, membership => inclusive, # have tried in quotes too password => $password, tag => 'definedusers', } After repeated runs, it won't remove users from groups they don't belong in. See: $ cat /etc/group|grep sudo sudo:x:27:baker,charlie $ puppet agent --test Notice: /Stage[main]//Node[common]/Create_user_type[echo]/User[echo]/groups: groups changed 'puppet' to 'adm,cdrom,dip,lpadmin,plugdev,puppet,sambashare,sudo' $ cat /etc/group|grep sudo sudo:x:27:baker,charlie,echo Puppet has added the user to sudo. I'll remove this from Hiera. $ vi common.yaml ... $ puppet agent --test $ cat /etc/group|grep sudo sudo:x:27:baker,charlie,echo Puppet has NOT removed the user from $ sudo usermod -G puppet echo $ cat /etc/group|grep sudo sudo:x:27:baker,charlie $ puppet agent --test $ cat /etc/group|grep sudo sudo:x:27:baker,charlie However puppet has not added the user back, either. It seems that the docs say this should not happen: membership Whether specified groups should be considered the complete list (inclusive) or the minimum list (minimum) of groups to which the user belongs. Defaults to minimum. Valid values are inclusive, minimum. -- http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#user As shown above, the membership is "inclusive". This breaks expected security-related behavior so priority is rather high. $ puppet --version 3.0.2 -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
