Ok, I am not sure what exact ubuntu version of sssd I had, it was
1.9.4-something, Ubuntu issued a raft of sssd updates
libipa-hbac-dev libipa-hbac0 libnss-sss libpam-sss
libsss-idmap0 libsss-sudo python-libipa-hbac python-sss
sssd-tools
I ended up with version 1.9.4-0ubuntu4.2
Before the updates, sssd worked perfectly, after the update, sssd
did not work at all, my pc hung and when I did get back in as a
local user, the domain was not visible. Downloading 1.10.1,
compiling and installing over the installed sssd packages cured the
problem, so the cause must have been the update.
I think the relevant ubuntu bug is 903752, this refers to
'libpwquality' for which a certain 'Timo Aaltonen' provided an
update for on the 9/7/2013 and 'Adam Conrad' finally released the
fix on 24/8/13, this fix hit my pc on 27/8/13 and made my pc
unusable.
I do not have an account at ubuntu to report the bug, so I thought
that I would cut out the monkeys and come direct to the organ
grinder ;-) , could you please get 'Timo Aaltonen' to talk to 'Adam
Conrad' and sort out the problem.
Thanks
Rowland
I can certainly CC Timo and ask him if this is something that rings a
bell :-)
