Fixed In Version: glibc-2.17-157.el7_3.1 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, installing an Identity Management (IdM) server or client did notadd the "sss" option to the "initgroups" lookup entry in the /etc/nsswitch.conffile. As a consequence, looking up secondary groups for users managed by theSystem Security Services Daemon (SSSD) did not work as expected. With theupdate, looking up secondary groups works correctly.
