Description of problem: I had created a user "tim" with UID 800 which was put in the ipausers group. Then I created a group "staff" with GID 800. What I didn't know is that the user creation silently created a group "tim" which also had the GID 800, which I didn't expect. So I ended up with two groups with GID 800. Doing "id tim" on the console then only shows the numeric GID, not any of the two names. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freeipa-server-2.0.0-1.fc15.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create user "test" with UID 800 2. Create group "testgroup" with GID 800 3. Do "ipa group-find" and "ipa group-find --private" Actual results: Two groups with GID 800 and different names Expected results: The creation of the second group should have reported an error.
