Package: tiger
Version: 1:3.2.1-24
Severity: normal
The check_neverlogin script fails if the system is configured to use
winbindd for AD connectivity, as grep bails out with the message
"grep: Invalid back reference".
This is likely due to the username being of the form DOMAIN\user, with
user being a UUID starting with some number, so that grep tries to make
a back ref of the backslash + digit and can't. AFAICT the expression
failing is this bit in the for loop at line 108:
SHELL=`$GREP "^$user:" $passwd_set | $AWK -F: '{print$7}'`
Tested by running from command prompt:
grep "^MYDOM\8c53fc6d-abd2-49ab-a:" /dev/null | awk -F: '{print$7}'
BTW, I'm fairly certain that the grep expression does not work as it
should, too, for regular domain users like e.g. MYDOM\uname, as it likely
interprets this as MYDOMuname instead, only it won't give an error message
in such case.
Regards,
Filip
