Problem:
When accessing a Centrified system it is seen that file permissions are showing the UID and not the associated name. The ID command returns only the UID and GID not the associated username and groupname.
Cause:
Permission issue
Example:
$ id uid=150538() gid=200(is) ==> UID not mapping with username $ pwd /home/dhima_sa $ ls -al total 160 drwx------ 2 150538 is 8192 Apr 10 14:31 . drwxr-xr-x 403 root root 16384 Apr 14 02:22 .. -r--r--r-- 1 150538 is 832 Jan 21 17:03 .cshrc -rwxr--r-- 1 150538 is 347 Jan 21 17:03 .exrc -rw------- 1 150538 is 70 Jan 21 17:03 .k5login -r--r--r-- 1 150538 is 334 Jan 21 17:03 .login -r--r--r-- 1 150538 is 700 Jan 21 17:03 .profile -rwxr--r-- 1 150538 is 700 Jan 21 17:03 .profile.orig -rw------- 1 150538 is 414 May 22 11:34 .sh_history $
Workaround:
NA
Resolution:
Check the /etc/nsswitch.conf file permissions as they may be incorrect.
ls -al /etc/nsswitch.conf -rw------- 1 root root 1753 Aug 8 08:47 /etc/nsswitch.conf
