[Puppet Users] puppet slow when ensuring user with groups in combination with winbind auth
Hi, I am using winbind with "winbind enum groups = yes" on some of our servers. When ensuring a user that is local (and also in AD, so it has a lot of groups) the puppet run takes ages. Winbind process is taking a lot of cpu and when I strace it AD groups are passing by. This is the manifest: # ensure user and group user { user: ensure => 'present', groups => 'logongroup', uid => '900', require => Group[$user], managehome => true, } group { user: ensure => 'present', gid => '900', } # id user uid=900(user) gid=900(user) groups=900(user),400(logongroup),16777729(domain users) ............. What is puppet doing? I am presuming it is checking if this user is a member of the logongroup. Can you make puppet not performing these group checks preforming in AD? My nsswitch.conf tells it to first look in local files. passwd: files winbind shadow: files winbind group: files winbind So why is it still performing these tasks when the logongroup is already present in local files? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
