Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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 Dmitri Pal 2011-12-14 18:35:30 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1904

Currently we plan to map Windows SIDs to Unix UID algorithmic (ID range for each domain, RID is added to the lowest ID in the range). But how shall we handle trusted domains where RFC2307 like attributes are already available, e.g. with Services for Unix (SfU) or the IdM for Unix in newer AD versions.

On then one hand it would be irritating that a Windows user with a unix uid and gid will have a different uid and gid on a unix host.

On the other hand a trust relationship means to make all users and groups available. And here we will most certainly fail if not all users and groups in a domain have the RFC2307 attributes and we take those form some users and groups and calculate them for the rest.

So I think it would be better to not look at those attributes at all, but we have to underline this strongly in the documentation
