Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1293538 >> Description of problem: Netgroup LDAP Authentication with Satellite 6. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): >> How reproducible: A RHEL 7.1 installation with Satellite 6.1.1 configured to use external LDAP authentication (created using hammer) <pre> # hammer auth-source ldap create --name LDAP1 --host ldap.example.org --server-type posix --tls yes --port 636 \ --base-dn ou=People,ou=example,o=org,c=au --groups-base ou=netgroup,ou=example,o=org,c=au --attr-login uid </pre> The User Group can then be created and an External Group linked to it (also using hammer)... <pre> # hammer user-group create --name Test # hammer user-group external create --auth-source-id 3 --name test-netgroup --user-group Test </pre> >> Actual results: This returns a "500 Internal Server Error" - but checking in the Web UI the external group is displayed as linked correctly. Trying to then refresh the display to show the users in the LDAP netgroup does nothing - no users are found within the group. (Creating the user group and external linking via the Web UI returns NO errors - only via hammer do we get a clue something is wrong) In the foreman production.log we see the 500 error: <pre> 2015-12-09 09:30:19 [I] Processing by Api::V2::ExternalUsergroupsController#create as JSON 2015-12-09 09:30:19 [I] Parameters: {"external_usergroup"=>{"name"=>"test-netgroup", "auth_source_id"=>"3"}, "apiv"=>"2", "usergroup-id"=>"5"} 2015-12-09 09:30:20 [W] Creating scope :completer_scope.

It works differently, they are to be found at ou=Netgroup,dc=example,dc=com tree with cn as their name. For association with user, attribute nisNetgroupTriple is defined in this object. Attribute is defined multiple times for each user in a given netgroup. The structure is triple ($server, $user, $domain). While users can set group base DN today, we hardcode "memberuid" that we use for searching posix groups. We could make this also configurable per LDAP auth source and let ldap_fluff search in this triple.
