Description of problem:
In IPA-AD trust environment, add an option to filter AD groups at the level of
a trust boundary so that they won't appear in IPA at all.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-trust-ad

What could be done to achieve this ?
After adding AD trust, it brings in lots and lots of group from the Domain
Controller from which some groups may not be useful in IPA(linux) environment.
If such AD groups are never going to be used, why  not filter them out?

How could it be possible ?
Using blacklisting the SID at KDC level doesn't seem to be much useful. Using
ID Views would be nice; to add a feature to completely hide a group or at Trust
level; create a tab or config "thing" to hide groups from the trust.

Actual results(What do we have currently ?):
After adding AD trust, it brings in lots and lots of group from the Domain
Controller from which some groups may not be useful.
ID views can be used for this but doesn't seem to be a smart solution, since
all new groups appearing in AD must be mapped.

Expected results:
There is should be way to filter out AD groups at the level of a trust boundary
so that they won't appear in IPA at all and should be blacklisted.

  • simo: is it only for user group membership or not see the group at all?
  • sumit: not see the group
  • simo: should be done automatically as soon as SSSD consults PAC
  • sbose: we will get it for free then
