RE: [Fedora-directory-users] Map FDS group to Posix group

I think your asking if you can assign a gid to a group, and the answer is yes. In our organization, in order to continue with redhat's use of private groups, when a new user is created in fds, I do the following: -create the user object, defining posix attributes of uid, gid, default shell -I also create a group of the same name (in a separate OU for organizational purposes), add the new user to that group, then add the posixgroup object class to the group, and then define the gid value (same gid value as defined for the user object). While I'm doing the same work twice, I like maintaining redhat's private group structure. I'm sure there is an easier way to do this, however, the above works great for us.

In the catalogue there are users and groups. At users properties of the Posix-user are included and accordingly established uid and gid. But specified gid have no attitude to groups to which the user in FDS belongs. It is the extremely inconvenient. Whether it is possible to map with groups FDS to groups UNIX/POSIX somehow?
