Description Krishna Raman 2013-05-24 23:09:37 UTC 
Description of problem:
There is an assumption on node codebase that a gear's uid = gid.
This is highly dependent in system configuration and other packages that are installed. 

Eg. On F19 default MIN_GRP=1000. default MIN_UID in node.conf is 500.
 - When a gear is created
     - UID = 500
     = GID = 1000
 - homedir permission assumes uid=500, gid=500

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rubygem-openshift-origin-node-1.9.6-1

How reproducible:
Always on F19

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with F19 origin installation with default /etc/login.defs
2. Create a gear

Actual results:
gear permission are incorrect as they refer to incorrect gid

Expected results:
Node code should create a new group and use the correct GID when creating the user. Gear permission are correct
