Title: Message Title Bowie Bartels commented on PUP-677 Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not I found a "solution". I used the numeric username for UID and GID as well, and now it works fine!

Title: Message Title Bowie Bartels commented on PUP-677 Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not Hi everyone, I also just ran into the same problem. Everything works fine (creating user and home folder based on numeric value). However, when using ssh_authorized_key it complains the user does not exist. Issue seems to be open for a while. Any chance its status will change any time soon? Thanks for the response!

Title: Message Title Justin Lintz commented on PUP-677 Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not I just ran into this myself while trying to use the file type to set permissions on a folder where the username is numeric. Could a workaround be that if the owner and group is quoted, it's treated as a string and if not, its treated as a uid/gid?

Joseph M Siegmann was this problem, in fact, a deal-breaker for your use of Puppet? IMO numeric userids should be supported and it'd be nice to fix this.

Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not
Just would like to add, that we are trying to implement puppet as our standard for managing systems, but we also have made a company decision that user logins will be a number,
so users logins look like '123456' or '445566', this has been this way for over 6 years at our organization, and given we have over 75k employees I do not see us changing our company standard.
It would be nice for puppet 'ssh_authorized_key' to be able to handle user id's as a number only, given many of the modern operating systems accept this as a standard practice.
This will be such an issue for us, that we will see no way to continue using puppet moving forward.
I will be able to only overlook this for a short while, as we will have to start evaluating other options if puppet cannot support this as a standard.
Thank you

A purely numeric username is a bit ridiculous, but it actually came up in a training class. A student assigned himself the username of '1970' and things blew up. Testing indicates that this resource type or provider cannot handle a numeric username. {code} [root@monkey ~]# puppet resource user 1970 ensure=present managehome=true Notice: /User[1970]/e...

Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not
I agree that the user type should do stricter validation. But there is also the possibility that you create the user manually - and obviously some useradd implementations allow you to create a users that the man page states are invalid - and you now stumble across the ssh_authorized_key type that cannot handle the ssh keys of your manually created user.
So while we cannot ensure that you don't have users that are purely numeric, I think we should not try to handle these cases. Again: I have nothing against stricter validations for the user type but I don't now if the user should be non numeric applies for all platforms (windows?)

Re: user type accepts numeric usernames, but ssh_authorized_key does not
The POSIX standard (IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition) only states that usernames cannot start with the hyphen character. It's a little bookish and not pragmatic, I know, but it's there as a standard:
