IPA winsync plugin failed to replicate users when default user group
was non-posix even though User Private Groups (UPG) were enabled
on the server. Both their uidNumber and gidNumber were empty and
they missed essential object classes. When the default user group
was made posix and UPG was disabled it did not set gidNumber to
the default group gidNumber.
This patch improves this behavior to set gidNumber correctly
according to UPG configuration and the default group status
(posix/non-posix). 4 situations can occur, the following list
specifies what value is assigned to user gidNumber:
1) Default group posix, UPG enabled: gidNumber = UPG gidNumber
2) Default group posix, UPG disabled: gidNumber = default
group gidNumber
3) Default group non-posix, UPG enabled: gidNumber = UPG gidNumber
4) Default group non-posix, UPG disabled: an error is printed to
the dirsrv log as the gidNumber cannot be retrieved. User
is replicated in the same way as before this patch, i.e.
without essential object classes.

IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
