I've been handed a requirement to created nested groups in our

for our Posix logins to ease our admin load. We are using RHEL6.1 and SSSD
1.5.x from Redhat, along with OpenLDAP 2.4.x. I have loaded up a test VM with
all the appropriate software, but for the life of me I can't make it work.
First of all, thank you for the highly detailed bug report. It always
makes tracking issues down much easier.
You are hitting a known bug with SSSD 1.5.1 as shipped in RHEL 6.1. The
upstream ticket was
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/833
I am happy to inform you, however, that this bug was fixed upstream in
SSSD 1.5.9 and is backported for inclusion into RHEL 6.2.
This fix is present in the version of SSSD currently available in the
RHEL 6.2 Beta release, so you may wish to grab the SSSD packages from
there and give it a try.
