Hi All,
Is there a weird restriction to UID 999 in ipa, as IPA keeps changing
the UID when I add a user with that number? (I've already checked the
UID isn't in use)
We use 999 as a marker for DNA plugin. UID/GID 999 is replaced by
an allocated one with the help of the 389-ds plugin
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNA_Plugin
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Deployment_Guide/Defining_Dynamic_Atrribute_Values.html#about-dunamically-assigning-attribute-values
The documentation mentions that the magic value can be a word ("magic"),
or it doesn't have to exist at all (it's added for
objectClass:posixAccount entries). Is there a reason IPA is using 999 here?
If there is, the command should fail instead of silently assigning a
different number than asked for. I'll file a bug for this.
[root@sysvm-ipa ~]# ipa user-add administrator --uid=999 --gidnumber=132
