> Key: RANGER-4026
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-4026
> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: usersync
> Reporter: Sailaja Polavarapu
> Assignee: Sailaja Polavarapu
> Priority: Major
>
> RANGER-3254 implemented a change in user/group mapping so that sync source is
> taken into account when a group name matches multiple sources. LDAP users
> belonging to a group like "CN=mygroup" will not be synced in Ranger if there
> is an existing "mygroup" that was imported by UnixUserGroupBuilder.
> This breaks a very common use case where posix users and groups are synced to
> the OS from an LDAP backend using SSSD, Centrify, or similar utilities. In
> those cases, both the linux OS and LDAP/AD are using the same identity
> repository. If Ranger imported a set of users and groups from one sync
> source, and then later switches to another, group mappings break and users
> don't get all of their groups.
> Provide an option for customers to treat users/groups from multiple sync
> sources as same for updating group memberships.
