+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1967641 +++ Description of problem: Since bug #1727236 was fixed, 'usermod -G' now fails if the user is a member of any remote groups. This breaks accountsservice's org.freedesktop.Accounts.User.SetAccountType method. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): shadow-utils-2:4.6-12.el8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Somehow add user to remote group (either by enrolling with IPA server or with Active Directory)... this is hard, don't ask me how :) 2. Try to change user's account type from standard to administrator or vice-versa in gnome-control-center. Or do it manually via D-Bus. Actual results: $ gdbus call --system --dest org.freedesktop.Accounts --object-path /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1636600000 --method org.freedesktop.Accounts.User.SetAccountType 1 Error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.Accounts.Error.Failed: running '/usr/sbin/usermod' failed: Child process exited with code 6 Expected results: There should be no error! Additional info: See https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/issues/338 for upstream discussion. The problem is the patch added in bug #1727236 doesn't just prevent adding users to remote groups, it also prevents *not removing* users from remote groups, i.e. it prevents us from keeping remote group membership unchanged. In order to add the user to a new local group, we now have to remove all the user's remote group memberships, since that's the only way to prevent usermod from claiming the groups don't exist.
