Hello,

apologies for the late reply, due to the holidays.

I had a call from a user this morning, she had to do multiple login attempts and reboot several times before she could login.


I assume the general setup works, as troubles only show up when password expires.
On the  users laptop:

In /var/log/secure there is always a clear message that the password is expired:

Jan  4 10:06:13 lremijsen mate-screensaver-dialog: pam_sss(mate-screensaver:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=382900705 euid=382900705 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=lremijsen
Jan  4 10:06:13 lremijsen mate-screensaver-dialog: pam_sss(mate-screensaver:auth): received for user lremijsen: 12 (Authenticatietoken is niet langer geldig; nieuwe is vereist)
Jan  4 10:06:14 lremijsen mate-screensaver-dialog: pam_sss(mate-screensaver:account): User info message: Wachtwoord verlopen. Verander nu uw wachtwoord.

    sssd_pam.log only shows:

(Tue Jan  2 13:05:46 2018) [sssd[pam]] [orderly_shutdown] (0x0010): SIGTERM: killing children

   sssd_network.cawdekempen.be.log only shows:

(Tue Jan  2 13:05:46 2018) [sssd[be[network.cawdekempen.be]]] [orderly_shutdown] (0x0010): SIGTERM: killing children

I suppose I have to increase the log levels?

Many many thanks for the help!

greetings, J.

This sounds like a bug, could you follow https://docs.pagure.org/SSSD.sssd/users/troubleshooting.html, gather logs from the pam and domain sections and post them here? If the password is expired, then pam_sss should send a message to the login manager which the login manager should display.

The logs would at least show if the deamon is sending the message to pam_sss…
