If there is a group with two names (User_CS1_grp1 and User_CS1_grp1_Alias was example our QE was using) and a member user (User_CS1 and User_CS1_Alias) then the ghost users don't work properly.

This sequence:

getent group -s sss group User_CS1_grp1
getent passwd -s sss passwd User_CS1

Stores both user and group but doesn't create the member/memberof link between the two.

The same setup works fine if there are no aliases.

This turned out to be the same issue as #1714 which is already acked and triaged. It only showed in the proxy provider because the LDAP provider is more robust.
