Hi Lukas,
thank you,
Sadly I'm not sure I'll be able to backport sssd 1.16 to debian 9 it is not part
of official backports.
Looking at the logs, when there is no pubkey authentification happen for more than 10s
there is no file release.
Is there a way to identify broken client ?
Best regards,

There were many changes between 1.15.0 and 1.16.x.
Could you test sssd 1.16.3-3.1 from debian buster?

If upgrade to 1.16.3-3.1 does not help then
would guess some application does not use PAM correctly
and thus clients does not close connections.
Based on your settings, sssd will close idle connection after 10 seconds.
But clients might open connections much faster than sssd is able
to close unused connections.
Changing fd_limit and client_idle_timeout is not solution in case of
broken client application.
