Description of problem: Creating private groups for smartcard users when the home directory is created Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): authconfig-6.1.12-23.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using authconfig UI, enable smartcard login and check "Create home directory at first login" option 2. 3. Actual results: User is created during smartcard login but private directory is not created if the ldap user on the smartcard has a group id that does not exist on the client Expected results: User and private group should be created at the first login Additional info:
The group is created for the user with the group id from the entry but no group name is assigned to the group. This is message I see when I login with the smartcard "/usr/bin/id: cannot find name for group ID 1002
Does the group entry exist in LDAP?
I have specified the following: uid: kdcuser6 uidnumber: 1002 gidnumber: 1002 I was expecting a user would be created with uid and uidnumber values and a private group would be created for the user with the gidnumber and the group name would be the same as uid (kdcuser6). Or am I missing any other parameters?
Create home directory functionality just creates the home directory on local filesystem. It won't create user and group accounts.
I'm closing this as not a bug. Feel free to reopen this bugzilla if you have further issues.
