We could verify that the user is neither locked nor disabled. The
password has not changed since we reset it. There is no obvious reason
why the password is not accepted anymore.
Whats strange is the fact that a particular IPA server says 'Failed
logins: 0' but shows a 'Last failed authentication' timestamp that is
later than the 'Last successful authentication' timestamp.
I suppose what I would do, as DM, is to take a snapshot of one of the
broken entries, because you want the userPassword, krbPrincipalKey, etc.
Then reset the password. If it breaks again compare the stored and new
entry to see what, if anything, is different.
Including things like logs for a failing kinit would be useful as well.
For login failures, following the sssd troubleshooting guide to bump up
the devel level.
