I tracked this down after chasing an issue with the group resource type under certain conditions that fails to recognise a group as in sync if it's members aren't in alphabetical order. The behaviour only happens when
attribute_membership
is set toinclusive
.After looking at this for a while, it looks as if this is the wrong attribute to use for what is trying to be achieved and is in fact something only really implemented for the AIX provider. This is highlighted by a recent documentation ticket https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/DOCUMENT-356 where the group types docs have now been updated (see puppetlabs/puppet#5765)
I believe changing this to
auth_membership => true
is correct. (it also solves the strange behaviour I was seeing on RHEL)
