Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2015-07-14 08:46:52 UTC 
Description of problem:

The EXTERNAL auth source only gets created when the first user gets auto-created based on external authentication (enabled with --foreman-ipa-authentication=true). That's why the admin will not even see the tab to specify external group mapping when creating/editing user groups.

The EXTERNAL auth source should either be always present, or created when --foreman-ipa-authentication=true is used.

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


How reproducible:

Satellite 6.0 but the same behaviour in 6.1 as well.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable external authentication via IdM using --foreman-ipa-authentication=true.
2. Attempt to define mapping of external groups to Satellite (Foreman) user groups.

Actual results:

Not possible, the tab is there because the EXTERNAL auth source is not there.

Expected results:

It should be possible even before the first externally-authenticated user has logged in / was auto-populated in the user database.

Comment 10 Kedar Bidarkar 2018-07-05 17:38:26 UTC 
We can now define the mappings of external groups in Satellite6 under user groups.


External groups tab now exists even before a user logs in, after "--foreman-ipa-authentication=true" is run.

Will be attaching screenshots shortly to this bug.

VERIFIED With sat6.4.0-snap9
