Comment	> If one is using the LDAP nis.schema to manage POSIX accounts in LDAP > the numerical ID of the primary group of the user is normally stored > in the gidNumber attribute of the posixAccount. Additional groups are > stored in the memberUid attribute of the posixGroup. > Vanilla HORDE is unable to retrieve the primary group of the > posixAccount, instead only the memberUid attribute of the posixGroup > can be evaluated which results in incomplete group member lists. > > Attached is a patch that adds the necessary bits and pieces to the > LDAP group driver to evaluate the primary group of an posixAccount. > Result are arrays with merged results of the new primary group and > and the default memberUid lookup. > > NOTE: Only read support as we don't write to LDAP using HORDE. > > Configuration options are provided for easy setup. Default behavior > is unchanged. > > modified functions: > listUsers() > - if $this->_params['posix'] is true > * get numerical ID ($this->_params['posixgidnumber']) of the group > * search LDAP auth basedn > ($GLOBALS['conf']['auth']['params']['basedn']) for users with > matching group ID > * if group has no memberUid attribute return list else return merged > and resorted list > > listGroups() > - if $this->_params['posix'] is true > * get numerical group ID ($this->_params['posixgidnumber']) of the > user with filter ($this->_params['posixfilter']) > * get group name ($this->_params['gid']) by numerical group ID > * merge and sort results with results from memberUid lookup > * return results > > Added new configuration parameters to conf.xml > - posix (Yes/No - true/false) > - posixgidnumber (numerical group ID, defaults to LDAP attribute 'gidNumber') > - posixfilter (LDAP RFC formatted filtet to match POSIX users, > defaults to '(objectclass=posixAccount)')
