Description Janne Blomqvist 2015-01-26 10:07:43 UTC
Description of problem:

Currently sss_cache -u -g options expect a user or group name. It would be nice if one could additionally use a UID or GID. Say, if the argument is an integer, invalidate by UID/GID, otherwise by name.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.11.6

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sss_cache -g some_gid

Actual results:

Output of command:
No cache object matched the specified search

Expected results:

Group with GID some_gid removed from the cache.

Sounds like a reasonable RFE to me, will clone upstream.

Comment 3 Jakub Hrozek 2015-01-26 10:22:29 UTC

Comment 4 Jakub Hrozek 2015-01-30 16:37:50 UTC
Reproposing for 7.2 as this is not critical for upstream.

Comment 5 Jakub Hrozek 2016-01-11 15:29:26 UTC
Makes sense, but not too urgent for 7.3

Comment 6 Jakub Hrozek 2016-11-23 14:24:48 UTC
Thank you for filing this bug report.

Since fixing this bug requires work in the upstream SSSD project which is not scheduled for the immediate future, I added a conditional development nack, pending upstream availability.

Comment 8 Jakub Hrozek 2018-04-18 15:03:41 UTC
We don't have plans to address this issue in RHEL in the immediate future. Therefore I'm closing this request with the UPSTREAM resolution.

Please reopen if you disagree.
