[SSSD-users] Re: SSSD and Kerberos-related problems during joining a RHEL8.4-host to AD

Hi again! I think I have found the problem! 😊 kinit -k returned the following error: kinit: Connection refused while getting default ccache …while kvno -S host TEST0003 returned the following error: kvno: Connection refused while opening ccache A bit of googling on these error messages revealed that the culprit might be the KCM-service not running... When googling a bit on the error messages thrown by kinit and kvno and issuing the following commands revealed that this was indeed the case. systemctl status sssd-kcm.socket systemctl status sssd-kcm.service I came across this error report which among other things recommends upgrading the packages: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1716981 So I run a “yum update” and re-joined the host to the realm, and now the AD-logons seem to be working fine! Now I “only” need to find out the very happening that rendered KCM to fail. :-) Thanks for all your input again!

Some backgroun -- in our company, we have thousands of OL8.x and hundreds of RHEL 8.x Linux servers directly AD integrated to our corp AD domain. I compared our sssd.conf with yours. I think you want to add the 'ifp' service for *L8. It's the infopipe service. Used by support utilities such as sssctl domain-list, etc. I thought you had to have a sssd.conf stanza for each service you enable. For instance, we have this: [nss] debug_level = 0x0100 #debug_level = 9 filter_groups = root filter_users = root [pam] pam_verbosity = 3 #debug_level = 9 offline_credentials_expiration = 3 [ifp] Because we have [sssd] ... services = nss,pam,ifp From your ldap_child.log, it looks like your SASL bind and then the LDAP query is working. Which is surprising to me. We set up ldap_sasl_authid = host/<fqdn>@<ad domain> in our sssd.conf file. But I'm guessing if that's not explicitly set, it uses HOSTNAME$@REALM. At least that's what it appears from your ldap_child.log. It appears to use: TEST0003$(a)ourlab.se <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fourlab.s... Several things to try to narrow down where the failure is occuring. 1. try 'kinit -k' on the command line. That uses the first entry in /etc/krb5.keytab file to attempt to authenticate as this machine account. It's not a perfect test, since it's acquiring a TGT ticket instead of a service ticket. 2. If that succeeds, try kvno -S host TEST0003 That should report the KVNO of your machine account credentials, as stored in AD. This is a better test, as you're acquiring a service ticket here. (Like sssd does). 3. Try 'adcli testjoin -D ourlab.se <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fourlab.s... -v'. This tests the sssd connectivity, similar to how sssd does it. if all that works, your problem is not with LDAP or your SASL binding. So then, 4. try 'getent passwd aron.kelemen(a)ourlab.se&#39;. That should return the entry for this user. If this fails, possibly your /etc/nsswitch.conf file isn't set up right or maybe your attribute mapping in AD isn't agreeing with your sssd.conf setting. (We use the MS-supported RFC2307bis AD schema extension).. 5. If that's good, then probably the problem is something in your PAM stack. Specifically, the auth phase. In our /etc/pam.d/sshd file, we have: #%PAM-1.0 auth substack password-auth auth include postlogin ... and in password-auth, we have: auth required pam_env.so # OL7/8 version. Per I/T's stated policy for service & process accounts, lock-out time = 30 mins auth required pam_faillock.so preauth silent deny=5 unlock_time=1800 auth sufficient pam_sss.so forward_pass auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet_success auth required pam_faillock.so authfail deny=5 unlock_time=1800 auth required pam_deny.so Spike _______________________________________________ sssd-users mailing list -- sssd-users(a)lists.fedorahosted.org To unsubscribe send an email to sssd-users-leave(a)lists.fedorahosted.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/sssd-users@lists.fedorahoste...
