I had problems with unique UIDs.  I tried to add a list of users using

  add2gosa <FILE>

where <FILE> has a couple of lines like "<LastName>     <FirstName>"
(try add2gosa without arguments for details).  A check with

     getent passwd
or
     getent group

showed that some users had the same UIDs and/or GIDs.   Checking the
next free UID/GID  seems to fail when creating a series of users.  The
line "sss_cache -U -G" should clean the cache, but it did not help for
some reason.  I tried to restart sssd in addition, but that failed
because (IIRC) systemd complained at some point about too many
restarts.

It would be great if you could verify my findings.  If you can confirm
my findings, we should report a bug against sssd and look for a
solution to the problem.

Best regards and many thanks for your tests!
