well, gid 14 was in conflict with uucp group, so I changed it a bit: # testGroup, Groups, example.com dn: cn=testGroup,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com memberUid: 1234 cn: testGroup gidNumber: 1234 objectClass: top objectClass: posixgroup # sysadmin, Groups, example.com dn: cn=sysadmin,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com gidNumber: 666 memberUid: 1125 memberUid: 1234 objectClass: top objectClass: posixgroup cn: sysadmin # test, UNIX, example.com dn: uid=test,ou=UNIX,dc=example,dc=com gidNumber: 1234 givenName: test uidNumber: 1234 uid: test now, test should belong to testGroup & sysadmin, correct? but that's not happening: # id test -a uid=1234(test) gid=1234(testGroup) groups=1234(testGroup) I don't understand this. It seemed so straight forward! (after switching test's gidNumber from 1234 to 666): # id test -a uid=1234(test) gid=666(sysadmin) groups=666(sysadmin) so, it's not recognizing the memberUid attribute, I think. There's this in /etc/ldap.conf: # Group member attribute #pam_member_attribute uniquemember I changed uniquemember to memberuid but that didn't do anything.... --- Susan <logastellus at yahoo.com> wrote: > Hi, everybody. > > I've a group with multiple memberUid attributes: > > # sysadmin, Groups, example.com > dn: cn=sysadmin,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com > memberUid: 1125 > memberUid: 1234 > gidNumber: 14 > objectClass: top > objectClass: posixgroup > cn: sysadmin > ____ > > and a user test like this: > > # test, UNIX, example.com > dn: uid=test,ou=UNIX,dc=example,dc=com > gidNumber: 1234 > objectClass: top > objectClass: person > objectClass: organizationalPerson > objectClass: inetorgperson > objectClass: posixAccount > objectClass: account > host: * > givenName: test > sn: asdf > uidNumber: 1234 > uid: test > cn: test asdf > homeDirectory: /home/test > > ___ > > there is also a group "test" which uid test belongs to.
