Group membership changes propogate in our environment just fine within a
reasonable period of time.  What should we be talking by default,
5 minutes?
Hi
OK. I've just removed a user from a group and logged in as that
user. After 30 minutes id, getent and tests on what he can access
still show him to be a member. That's too long.

 From man sssd.conf:

  entry_cache_timeout (integer)
     How many seconds should nss_sss consider entries valid
     before asking the backend again

     Default: 5400

So the default cache lifetime is 5400 seconds, you can set a shorter one
if you need the entries to be updated more frequently.
Hi.
It has no effect . I set:

 entry_cache_timeout = 10
and restarted sssd, waited for a minute or so but still getent, id and 
permissions of the user were still those of being a group member. This suggests 
that the cache is still being consulted. It sometimes works, but after a 
variable length of time. The current test (removing a user from a group) has 
been running for 20 minutes but still the user is a member of the group. Stuck!
