Hi,
according to the sssd.conf you do not have `ad_enable_gc` set so this
should be `true` by default.
But in the log it contacts LDAP port:
[sdap_print_server] (0x2000): Searching 192.168.1.4:389 -- IIUC, GC port
should be 3269...
-- what port is used when everything is working as expected?
If I understand "Referral(10), 0000202B: RefErr: DSID-0310074A, data 0, 1
access points" correctly, this specific DC "doesn't know" this user
and
refers to other DCs, but referrals chasing is disabled for ad provider.
This doesn't explain what happens though... Perhaps clue can be found
earlier in the logs.

, the fix is
currently not available in any released RHEL or CentOS version.
