Map FDS group to Posix group

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I think your asking if you can assign a gid to a group, and the answer
is yes.  In our organization, in order to continue with redhat's use of
private groups, when a new user is created in fds, I do the following:

-create the user object, defining posix attributes of uid, gid, default
shell
-I also create a group of the same name (in a separate OU for
organizational purposes), add the new user to that group, then add the
posixgroup object class to the group, and then define the gid value
(same gid value as defined for the user object).  

While I'm doing the same work twice, I like maintaining redhat's private
group structure.  I'm sure there is an easier way to do this, however,
the above works great for us.

Subject: Map FDS group to Posix group

Colleagues!

There is deployed server FDS. In the catalogue there are users and
groups. At users properties of the Posix-user are included and
accordingly established uid and gid. But specified gid have no attitude
to groups to which the user in FDS belongs. It is the extremely
inconvenient. Whether it is possible to map with groups FDS to groups
UNIX/POSIX somehow?

Thanks
