[Freeipa-devel] default stance for posix/non-posix groups
When we implemented groups in v2 long ago the default was that new groups would be non-POSIX unless specifically requested. It was possible to convert a non-POSIX group to POSIX later (but not the other way around). The SSSD guys have asked that this be reversed, that the default stance by all groups are POSIX unless otherwise requested. Any objectsion? rob ___ Freeipa-devel mailing list Freeipa-devel@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-devel

What was the argument for them being non-posix by default? ___ Freeipa-devel mailing list Freeipa-devel@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-devel
