Hi @HXi-WMF, your account has been created and access to the relevant groups granted. Please wait 30m (as of this comment) before trying it out as the access propagates across the fleet. I 'll resolve this task, feel free to reopen if you meet issues.

Re-opening. The developer account Hxi-ctr has shell name xihua, not hxi-ctr which was added to Puppet in this patch https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/868664/.

Agreed, thanks @taavi. I discovered this as part of T325857: Requesting Kerberos identity for Hxi-ctr too.

@akosiaris is there anything I can do to help here? I see the general instructions and warnings on this page: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/SRE/LDAP/Renaming_users so I don't want to go ahead without guidance.
I've also created the kerberos identity as hxi-ctr which we would presumably want to revoke as part of renaming the shell account.

I guess the user hasn't tried to use the credentials yet, otherwise they would have reported this.

I don't think that applies. We have no Hxi-ctr account in LDAP to rename apparently. It's just puppet data that's wrong.

Yes, that one you want to revoke.

Just to verify this claim, I just ran a fleet wide cumin of 'last |grep hxi-ctr'. The only output is on stat1007, dating Jan 19 17:23. No files in /home/hxi-ctr.

@HXi-WMF, we are going to have to rename your account from hxi-ctr to xihua due to a mistake on my part. Let us know if this would cause you issues.

@HXi-WMF, could you please confirm that we can proceed with the account renaming?
