Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Hyzer, Chris" <>]

I think I have bushy AD PSPNG working:

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/PSPNG+bushy+at+Penn

Its different than the configuration wiki.  Also, I don’t see how the 
configuration wiki could work anyways...   when you do bushy, you generally 
want the cn to be the extension right?

FROM:

changeLog.consumer.<provisioner-name>.groupCreationLdifTemplate = dn: 
cn=${group.name},${utils.bushyDn(group.name, "cn", "ou")},dc=example,dc=edu

TO:

changeLog.consumer.pspng_activedirectoryFull.groupCreationLdifTemplate = dn: 
${utils.bushyDn(group.name, "cn", "ou")}||cn: 
${group.extension}||objectclass: group||sAMAccountName: ${group.id}

######################

Also, the samaccountname needs to be the uuid right?

changeLog.consumer.pspng_activedirectoryFull.singleGroupSearchFilter = 
(&(objectclass=group)(sAMAccountName=${group.id}))



Maybe we should add another example of bushy on the doc page (using 
extension?)  or am I doing something wrong?

Is "bushy" a grouper term?  Maybe we need to more clearly define it...

Thanks
Chris

Is that what you do to get the uuid into the samaccountname?

Im all for this as an option.  Also it should not get stuck if not using that 
option and if the name is too long, right?

Seeking consensus of something goofy we do with our AD groups at GT... 

If the CN exceeds 64 characters, we make the cn the first 59 chapters 
followed by a dash and then a few characters of the hex hash the entire 
value. In the last 12 years, no one has complained because the first 59 
characters is generally enough [1] to tell what the group is and the 
description is complete. 

[1] - We reverse the group path in the cn so the most important parts are 
first. 


I haven’t standardized this in PSPNG because it is so kludgey, but I can 
create a util function easily enough. 

What do people think?
