I am working with a customer running RHEL V6.4. They are using ldap for
authentication.
No problem authenticating a users login but the gids are not
consistantly being translated to group names when running id,ls -l or
other commands that display the group information. They are using sssd with caching
enabled.
They are using encrypted communications between the client and server but at my request
they switched to unencrypted (port 389) so we could capture a tcpdump. The dump was
taken
for an ls -l command and it does show two differnt gid's sent to the
ldap server and the correct group names are being returned.
However, the ls command only shows the gid values and not the names.
They mentioned that if they run getent group groupname, sssd will
cache that information for a while until the entry times out and then the group names are
no longer displayed.
so 'id' or 'ls -l' display the names for some time and then only the
numbers are displayed?
Please add the debug_level option to sssd.conf, see man sssd.conf for details. The higher
the level the better. The most interesting log files here are /var/log/sssd/sssd_nss.log
and /var/log/sssd/sssd_DOMAIN.log.
Fell free to send them to me directly if you need some help debugging.
bye,
Sumit
I am not sure how to further debug this and cannot explain why when
the ldap server returns the correct group names, it is not being displayed by the host
commands.
Can anyone suggest some other techniques to find out where the group
names are being dropped ?
Any help greatly appreciated.
