Description

Two-member cluster:
- Primary: upgraded from 2.4.2-p1 to 2.4.3 using the GUI
- Backup: issue occurs both after an upgrade from 2.4.2-p1 to 2.4.3 using the GUI, as well as after a 2.4.3 clean install + configuration restore.

The php-fpm process running on the backup firewall removes the local user account ("xmlrpcsync") defined for configuration sync.

php-fpm 243 /xmlrpc.php: Removing user: xmlrpcsync

In addition, the "admins" group on the backup firewall is removed as well.

The behaviour is consistent on two pfSense two-node clusters running 2.4.3.
