#2668 [RFE] Add more flexible templating for override_homedir config option
Closed: Fixed 7 years ago Opened 8 years ago by swartz.

At this time SSSD override_homedir option allows for some limited substitution sequences. However, there is no way to override homedirs for more evolved exceptions such as /home/b/bob, where path is dependent on first letter of username or some such.

For more flexibility, it would be nice to use a regexp (or an output of a script) for determining homedir in certain scenarios.

Patches for 1.14 welcome, in the meantime, I'm moving the ticket to the next milestone.

milestone: SSSD 1.14 beta => SSSD 1.15 beta

This seems to relate to #2135 as well, though the suggestion of running an external script to determine the output is probably the most flexible to be able to cope with many different requirements.

I would say patches welcome in general.
