[SSSD-users] id command not returning group names. only sid is returned.

[Abhijit Tikekar]

Hi,

This is regarding the AD group name resolution in SSSD.

We are using SSSD between CentOS and Microsoft AD. Integration works fine
and users are able to authenticate without any issues. For SSSD
installation, we were just using the Base repo and using yum to install the
latest version available.

Lately we noticed that after user login, the "id" command returns only the
SID's and not the corresponding group name. I checked the installation and
made sure no step was missed. This is causing issues when users use "sudo"
(We have added specific group names under sudoers and the match fails
because no group names were returned.. only SID's)

Previously this used to work fine(Version 1.11.6). but the version
currently being installed via yum is V 1.12.4.

I could not find any reference to such behavior online with respect to V
1.12.4-47 and hence posting here.Has anyone experience similar issues with
this version?

Please advise.

Thanks,

~ Abhi
