Could you test the same with KRB5_TRACE=/dev/stderr kinit and also perhaps
with strace kinit to see if the locator file is opened at all and there
are e.g. no permission errors while SSSD is opening the kdcinfo file?

Thanks for the tip - I can see in strace that Kerberos is looking for plugins in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/krb5/plugins/krb5:

open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/krb5/plugins/libkrb5", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

But sssd_krb5_locator_plugin.so is in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/krb5/plugins/krb5 (last component is krb5 instead of libkrb5).

If I copy the krb5 directory to libkrb5, strace shows the plugin is loaded, the kdcinfo file is read, and kinit is talking to my local DC first.

Would I be correct in thinking this is an Ubuntu packaging issue?

Thanks,
Mike
