Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-9296:
----------------------------------------

bq. AD permits group names with space (e.g. "Domain Users").

Yes, but that doesn't mean they are POSIX compliant, which much match this 
regex: [_a-z][-0-9_a-z]*\$? .

So a definite -1 on this.

> ShellBasedUnixGroupMapping should support group names with space

> In a typical configuration, group name is obtained from AD through SSSD/LDAP. 
> AD permits group names with space (e.g. "Domain Users").
> Unfortunately, the present implementation of ShellBasedUnixGroupMapping 
> parses the output of shell command "id -Gn", and assumes group names are 
> separated by space. 
> This could be achieved by using a combination of shell scripts, for example, 
> bash -c 'id -G weichiu | tr " " "\n" | xargs -I % getent group "%" | cut 
> -d":" -f1'
> But I am still looking for a more compact form, and potentially more 
> efficient one.
