Title: #175: Add module for starting services
Action: opened
PR body:
"""
This is a WIP version of reducing code duplication in our cwrap integration tests.
I am still not sure whether we should also reuse function `create_sssd_fixture`.
And if yes; then probably in different nodule then `services`
And comments are welcome.
BTW I wrote patches few weeks ago; therefore new tests are not converted.
I am just sending patches to get some feedback.
Site effect of this patches is that tests are cca 20% faster (IIRC)

[sssd PR#616][opened] become_user: add supplementary groups so ad provider can access keytab

Title: #616: become_user: add supplementary groups so ad provider can access keytab
Action: opened
PR body:
"""
For security reasons one might want to run providers as a non-privileged
user (say, _sssd). However some providers (in particular ad) might need
an access to restricted (non world-readable) files (for instance,
/etc/krb5.keytab). One of the possible ways to solve the problem is to
- add a special group (for instance, _keytab)
- set the owner:group of the file in question to root:_keytab
- set the permissions of the file in question to 640
- make the _sssd user a member of the _keytab group
For this to work become_user should assign supplementary groups, which
is what this patch does.

[sssd PR#5251][opened] [wip] subdomains: allow to inherit case_sensitive=Preserving
by pbrezina
URL: https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/pull/5251
Author: pbrezina
Title: #5251: [wip] subdomains: allow to inherit case_sensitive=Preserving
Action: opened
PR body:
"""
The first patch is just man page update to reflect current state.
I think it makes sense to be able to show subdomain names in
their original casing. Patches 2-3 make it work for AD provider.
Patch 4 makes it work for IPA provider. There is apparantely a bug
in winbind, but there is no link the any bugzilla so I do not know
if it was already fixed. The commit is four years old. This patch
requires case_sensitive=Preserving to be set also on the server,
otherwise it does not work. It can be enabled without the server setting
but we need to make nss_cmd_getpwnam_ex (and other _ex commands) to
always return case preserving name. So before I continue the work
I'd like to ask @sumit-bose if we can do it like this.

[sssd PR#5300][opened] ad: use parallel cldap ping for site discovery
by pbrezina
URL: https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/pull/5300
Author: pbrezina
Title: #5300: ad: use parallel cldap ping for site discovery
Action: opened
PR body:
"""
This PR adds support for CLDAP (connectionless LDAP over UDP) and makes
use of it during site discovery.
The discovery process is improved, it now sends the CLDAP ping to all
discovered domain controllers at once to avoid potential timeouts when
some of them are unreachable (which is quite common in real environment).
The first received reply is used.
The netlogon information is now requested only when SSSD starts and when
we are recovering from offline state To avoid swamping network with many
ping. This is quite fine given the site and forest information is not
dynamic but usually stable.
Additional improvement is that if we already know client's site we ping
only in-site controllers first. We were already doing that but now we
also fallback to off-site controllers in case none in-site controller
is unreachable. Previously we would just fail.
There is a bug in openldap [1] that makes SSSD wait for timeout in-case none
of the controller is reachable, but as long as at least one is reachble
the resolution will be fast.
