Public bug reported: When adding a user, the 'groups' keyword only works if multiple groups are given in useradd syntax, i.e. as a single string without spaces
groups: adm,sudo,cdrom I'm guessing the value is passed directly to the --groups command line option of useradd. Any of the more intuitive syntax forms (including the one in the documentation at http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/examples.html) do not seem to work. I've tried groups: [adm, sudo, cdrom] groups: adm, sudo, cdrom groups: - adm - sudo ** Affects: cloud-init (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1356208 Title: groups syntax broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1356208/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
