I can toggle the good and bad behaviour by adding or removing "files" to passwd_compat in /etc/nsswitch.conf
Causes problem: passwd_compat: files ldap group_compat: files ldap host:/root root# getent passwd 1119 host:/root root# No problem: passwd_compat: ldap group_compat: ldap host:/root root# getent passwd 1119 testuser:*:1119:1000:Test User:/home/testuser:/bin/bash Adding "files" to that line is suggested in some HOWTOs. We'll likely remove compat entirely and just go with "files ldap" on the "passwd:" line earlier in /etc/nsswitch.conf, we don't need the NIS-like behvaiours here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966734 Title: nfs4+idmap does not map uids correctly when using AUTH_SYS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/966734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
