Description Daniel Orrego

2016-09-20 15:37:33 CEST

When creating a user via a template, an option to create a custom group could be offered (when setting primaryGroup and groups). Currently one can only select the primary group from the list of existing groups.

If it makes sense, one could, for instance, specify something like primaryGroup:<username> in the template to create one group per user (Like with useradd, where a group with the same name as the username is created if no group name is specified)

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #42335 +++
Bug 42335 asks that 'Domain Users' be the default primary group if no group is explicitly selected (to fix UMC choosing the first in the list).

Could an extended attribute do the trick? See also Bug 37710 as an example for the field username.
