[Bug 1388091] Re: winbindd does not provide geocs to libnss_winbind in ad configuration with winbind nss info = template (default)

[Iain Lane]

Hi msaxl - thanks for your patch.

This is a patch to samba's upstream code. We shouldn't be maintaining
such patches in Ubuntu (if nothing else, we don't have the expertise to
review it properly). Is there any chance you could send it upstream
please? Instructions appear to be here
<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Using_Git_for_Samba_Development>.

I'm setting this bug to Incomplete - please reset to New once you have
done the above and ideally after you have had it reviewed there.

** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Title:
  winbindd does not provide geocs to libnss_winbind in ad configuration
  with winbind nss info = template (default)

Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  affected with Ubuntu version 14.04.1 and 14.10.

  If the user loggs in, he does not see his own full name (geocs).

  it is also reporduceable by getent passwd $USER. usually there should
  be a field containing the users full name.

  if winbindd enumerates all users or winbind rpc only = yes is set, the full name is displayed.
  In the first case only until the internal cache expires.

  The reason is that nss info template simply does not provide this
  information and resets this field, even if the values is known
  somewhere else in the code path.
