Hello,
the documentation (Linux Domain Identity, Authentication, and Policy
Guide for RH 7) clearly says the AUTOMEMBER-RULE is in fact a group
name, but it's misleading and not intuitive at all. Besides, the help
command doesn't mention this.
Maybe this point should be improved. For example by adding the option
--target mentioning explicitly the group name and then allowing the
rule to have a proper name ?
ipa help automember includes this.
We appreciate the suggestion for clarification but this would break
backwards compatibility. Using the rule name the same as the group or
hostgroup makes it clear which group/hostgroup the rule applies to, no
extra de-reference is needed.
