Description Henrique Martins 2014-11-18 19:52:04 UTC

Description of problem:
Pre scriptlet for nfs-utils adds gid/uid for rpcuser and nfsnobody.
When adding nfsnobody either groupmod/usermod or groupadd/useradd are used depending on whether nfsnobody already exists in group/passwd.
When adding rpcuser useradd/groupadd is used, which will fail if rpcuser already exists with different uid/guid.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nfs-utils-1.3.0-2.4.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:
At every yum install for several versions back

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change uid and/or gid of rpcuser in /etc/passwd and/or /etc/group
2. yum isntall some nfs-utils.rpm

Actual results:
Pre scriplet complains it can't set up rcpsuser and that it will use root instead, thus /var/lib/nfs/statd may end up with wrong uid/guid

Expected results:
Clean install, proper permisions on /var/lib/nfs/statd

Additional info:
Simply replicating what is done for nfsnobody should suffice, either by copy and paste/edit, or by creating a common check/add/mod function.

The error either still shows up or shows up again in nfs-utils-1.3.1-5.0.fc21.

Comment 6 Henrique Martins 2015-01-24 23:31:17 UTC

After I filed this ticket I fixed /etc/{passwd,group} manually, thus I didn't notice whether it was fixed or not.

Just downloaded the source for nfs-utils-1.3.1-6.0.fc21 (on updates testing) and it seems Steve copied the section that creates/fixes the user nfsnobody to create the user rpcuser on /etc/passwd, but didn't copy the sections that creates/fixes the group rpcuser...

Comment 7 Fabian Deutsch 2015-02-09 11:35:11 UTC

I am also seeing this. Any solution on the horizon for this?

Latest patch fixes rpcuser's entry in /etc/group properly.
Probably close this bz again.
