Hi All,
I have a few Fedora 23 box's joined to an AD domain using SSSD. The AD admin users in
the local default admin group wheel for these computers.
Login and using sudo in terminal is not an issue. However, any gnome GUI interface which
requires elevation prompt to enter their admin password fails with a message like
"Authentication failure, please try again."
Two of these Fedora 23 desktops are clean builds and fully up to date with selinux
disabled.

Has anybody seen something like this before or have hints/solution to resolve the issue. I
am happy provide any additional information as required.
Thanks for your help
Steve
