Description Dmitri Pal 2013-11-07 14:40:10 UTC

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/2140

Currently, when AD backend is used, Domain Users (or any primary group of a user for that matter) is explicitly added as memberof of a user being added. In large environments, where everyone is a member of Domain Users, this can trash the memberof plugin.

We could add the group on the frontend side instead, special casing the Domain Users.

The frontend would also have to know when the domain is AD in order to not add any generic LDAP group that would be named Domain Users.

Thank you taking your time and submitting this request for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Unfortunately, this bug was not given a priority and was deferred both in the upstream project and in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Given that we are unable to fulfill this request in following Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases, I am closing the Bugzilla as DEFERRED. To request that Red Hat re-considers the decision, please re-open the Bugzilla via appropriate support channels and provide additional business and/or technical details about its importance to you.

Note that you can still track this request or even contribute patches in the referred upstream Trac ticket.
