Background – stupidly large AD domain with 30,000 plus groups. It is a forest with a number of legacy domains that are not relevant to our authentication on Linux but the AD admins don’t want to allow us to mess with their schema so we
still use group membership to manage sudo.
We’re also attempting to align with Windows through use of nested groups to fit in with enterprise preference for RBAC.
It’s complicated and there’s no resourcing to put in place an IPA service which would help.
Anyway these are the relevant config elements:
id_provider = ad
auth_provider = ad
access_provider = ad
subdomains_provider = none
enumerate = true
ignore_group_members = true
cache_credentials = true
ldap_id_mapping = true
ldap_schema = ad
( I can provide full config if requested). We had gone to full enumeration and ignore_group_members to ensure that the groups that provide sudo access are available without ridiculous cpu utilisation and it was working but hit this apparent
issue:
[sssd[be[ourdomain.xxx.xxx]]] [ad_enum_cross_dom_members] (0x0080): Failed to add [CN=RG-Ourcompany-Ops-3rd Party-Data\#3-G,OU=CenITex,OU=Operations Roles,OU=Delegated Groups,OU=
Infrastructure Security,DC=ourcompany,DC=xxx,DC=xxx,,DC=xx]: Input/output error
Can raise a bug report if it’s clear that this is the issue.
Symptom is that group enumeration that was comprehensive, now seems to stop abruptly.
Cheers
