Hi all I am currently authenticating users with Centos 6 and sssd to an LDAP server. I'll be moving to a Centos 8 so have setup sssd to authenticate to the LDAP server on my test Centos 8 box. However, our users in our LDAP only contains all numeric identifiers for users. Centos 8 no longer accepts all numeric user names and group names
Currently my sssd.conf contains: ldap_user_uid_number = uid ldap_user_gid_number = uid override_homedir = /homes/%u Our LDAP server contains "uid" values for users like "123456" I'll still be able to use the LDAP "uid" for UNIX uid and gid but what I would like to be able to do is have the user name (and group name) created by prefixing the LDAP "uid" values with a literal "u" to make them POSIX compliant. Hence a user 123456 with "uid" of 123456 in LDAP can login and end up with a username of "u123456". I can't see a way to do that with a simple template in the "man ssd.conf" Mike Lake UTS CRICOS Provider Code: 00099F DISCLAIMER: This email message and any accompanying attachments may contain confidential information.
