What does it mean? I thought it was password authentication… What service fails? Please describe the problem from the user’s point of view.
I still don’t catch what’s wrong in your setup:
- nsdc is running
- users are listed in server manager
- sssd is running and resolves account names
- DNS seems OK
kinit fails, and could be a symptom of misconfiguration compatible with password auth failure, but sssd actually uses kerberos and seems to work… Something does not match!
Any error in /var/log/secure?
Could you attach the complete list of packages?
rpm -qa
And verification
rpm -Va
Also
sss_cache -U -G
id administrator
Please past the entire output.
Nobody still reported issues like this. That does not mean the issue is not present. Its condition is hard to reproduce. I hope you understand.
