Description Eric Harney 2013-01-22 21:19:20 UTC
Description of problem:
As per:
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:UsersAndGroups

The openstack-cinder package requires a static UID/GID combination for security concerns, as it is a networked service dealing with storage volume management for virtual machines.  It has used 165:165 (adjacent to other OpenStack services) in Fedora for a few releases already -- I'm filing this after noticing a message from some automated package testing tools.

Additional info:
Homedir is /var/lib/cinder, with shell /sbin/nologin

Comment 1 Eric Harney 2013-01-22 21:20:22 UTC
Both the user and group are named "cinder".

Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2013-01-22 21:38:09 UTC
OK, based on https://fedorahosted.org/setup/browser/uidgid 165:165 is still free, so I'll reserve it in next rawhide build.

Comment 3 Ondrej Vasik 2013-01-23 08:09:08 UTC
Built as setup-2.8.65-1.fc19. Closing RAWHIDE...
