RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. 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.

Fixed In Version: ipa-3.2.1-1.el7
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Feature: Filter groups by group type. Current types: - POSIX group is a group with object class posixGroup - external group is a group with object class ipaExternalGroup - non-POSIX group is a group which is not posix nor external: it doesn't have posixGroup nor ipaExternalGroup object class. Reason: There was no possibility to find all groups of certain type. Result (if any): New flags were added to group find command: --posix --nonposix --external When a flag is set, filtering is done according to a mapping described above. No Web UI impact.

Description Dmitri Pal 2013-04-16 15:45:56 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3483

Groups can't be filtered by type [normal, posix, external].

This feature will be really useful for implementing Web UI part of #3333. There, user have to specify posix group, but Web UI can get only filtered list of all groups. Selecting non-posix group results in error.

Comment 5 Michael Gregg 2014-02-27 03:19:58 UTC 
Additional, I did not completely verify this bug on the first pass. 

I did not test a match for a external group.

Verification complete:

[root@ipaqavmc ~]# ipa group-add --external --desc=desc extgrp
--------------------
Added group "extgrp"
--------------------
  Group name: extgrp
  Description: desc
[root@ipaqavmc ~]# ipa group-find --external
---------------
1 group matched
---------------
  Group name: extgrp
  Description: desc
----------------------------
Number of entries returned 1
