#30 large active directory compatibility for groups of a user
Hello,
I work on a project consisting in using pam_mount to mount cifs or nfs directories in a heterogeneous windows linux system.
We are we realized that in active directory, ldap back was not on the first 1024 users. So when doing a getent groups, we have not all users in the group but each time the first in 1024. What seems admissible because otherwise saturate the customers.
We also noticed that when we used the function of a sort the mount points based on user groups, suddenly not function correctly phenoment probably work at the previously quoted.
When doing a getent groups username, it correctly returns all the groups which he belongs.
Would it be possible to add a functionality pam_mount that uses the same mechanism to retrieve groups like getent groups username and not list them with pam?
Thank you in advance.
Otherwise just tell me where to execute the action in the source code so I can develloper this?
Resolved in commit v2.15-2-gd00270b. A release may occur in due time.
