Hello,
 
I have created a FreeIPA solution using Red Hat’s IDM product.
FreeIPA version: 4.5.0
OS version: RHEL 7.4
 
I have successfully installed the server portion and can authenticate to it using local IDM users, such as the ‘admin’ user. I have created a one-way trust between the IPA realm and an AD realm successfully, as `ipa trust-show` demonstrates, returning the SID of the domain. I have also created the local POSIX and external groups and mapped them. `ipa group-show <extgroupname>` returns the external member SID just fine.
 
However, I cannot authenticate in the server over SSH using one of those AD users. I’ve checked the HBAC rules and they are fine. One thing I noticed when monitoring the securelog when testing is that the IDM users make a call to pam_sss, as expected, but the AD users do not.

This probably means the user can’t be resolved at all, so the authentication process doesn’t even make it to the PAM phase. Does ‘getent passwd user@domainfqdn’ work?

Are you testing on the IDM server itself or on one of the clients? I would suggest to make the IDM server work first.

Either way, you’ll want to enable the SSSD debug logs and take a look there.

I have tried multiple ways of passing the user and all are rejected -- user@netbios, user@domainfqdn, netbios\user, and domainfqdn\user.

Either netbios\user or user@domainfqdn work, the others do not.

 
The user in question is in a single group in AD, and it has been tested with the group being both Domain Local and Universal with the same results. There is only one member of the group, the user that I am attempting login with.

Don’t use domain-local groups. Domain-local groups can only be assigned to a cross-forest group membership by accident, IPA needs to be fixed to disallow that.

Domain-local groups are just that, local to the domain they are defined in and during login, the membership to a domain local group from a non-local domain is stripped from the PAC and would remove the group membership of the user in that group during login.

 
Have I missed something?
