[SSSD-users] Re: sssd[be[1320]: Backend is offline

Hi folks, sssd 1.16.3-1 (rebuilt for Debian 9), systemd At boot time sssd_nss fails to initialize. systemctl status sssd shows root@srvl061:~# systemctl status sssd * sssd.service - System Security Services Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/sssd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2018-11-22 11:57:30 CET; 46s ago Main PID: 1312 (sssd) Tasks: 5 (limit: 7372) CGroup: /system.slice/sssd.service |-1312 /usr/sbin/sssd -i --logger=files |-1345 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sssd/sssd_be --domain example.com --uid 0 --gid 0 --logger=files |-1533 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sssd/sssd_nss --uid 0 --gid 0 --logger=files |-1534 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sssd/sssd_pam --uid 0 --gid 0 --logger=files `-1535 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sssd/sssd_pac --uid 0 --gid 0 --logger=files Nov 22 11:57:25 srvl061.ac.example.com systemd[1]: Starting System Security Services Daemon...

Nov 22 11:57:45 srvl061.ac.example.com sssd[be[1345]: Backend is offline Apparently this is a problem of resolvconf generating /etc/\ resolv.conf at boot time. If I replace it by a static file, then the problem is gone. Question is, how can I tell systemd to wait for resolv.conf? Is there some timeout in the backend I could adjust? Does it wait for the network at all? Every helpful comment is highly appreciated
