Hi all,

Looking to have my cake and eat it too.

I have alot of users that have been using Winbind for years. They

currently log in with the workgroup, ie:

...

WORKGROUP+username

Did you really use the plus-sign?

...

I would like to roll out SSSD with the ad provider. I would ideally like

for a user to be able to log in as:

...

WORKGROUP+username

or

username

and sssd would know this is the same AD user.

Please check the re_expression option, you'll want to tweak it to accept all forms you need. Please also note that the output format is controlled by a different option (full_name_format).

You'll also want to rm the cache after changing the input/output format.

...

Is this possible?

thx

FYI, we use the "+" in some cases to, and had to adapt the regex to this for it to work in newer sssd releases:

re_expression = (?P<name>.+)
