Hi,

Thanks for the help, I increased the debug level and found that it was my ldap_access_filter that wasn't allowing the user to login. It just happened that the error in the log was saying the account had expired, when really it hadn't.

Initially I too thought it may have been missing attributes, but turned out not to be the case.

Thanks again,
Regards David.

Subject: SSSD with SSH and PAM Account Expired

Hi, having configured SSSD on RHEL 6.4 to connect to our OpenLDAP server successfully, I can get a list of users and groups using the getent command but cannot ssh into the host or login via the console.

The following error message is returned in /var/log/secure:

May  8 12:18:26 rh-test-mg01 sshd[6660]: pam_sss(sshd:auth): authentication success; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=10.21.21.1 user=jimbob
May  8 12:18:26 rh-test-mg01 sshd[6660]: pam_sss(sshd:account): Access denied for user jimbob: 6 (Permission denied)
May  8 12:18:26 rh-test-mg01 sshd[6658]: error: PAM: User account has expired for jimbob from 10.21.21.1

These are my ldap details:

# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <uid=jimbob,ou=people,dc=XXX,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#

# jimbob, People, XXX.com
dn: uid=jimbob,ou=People,dc=XXX,dc=com
givenName: Jim
sn: Bob
uid: jimbob
uidNumber: 1081
homeDirectory: /home/jimbob
loginShell: /bin/bash
cn: Jim Bob
gidNumber: 1398
mail: jim.bob at XXX.com<mailto:jim.bob at XXX.com>
userPassword:: XXX
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
objectClass: ldapPublicKey
objectClass: shadowAccount


If I comment out the following line in /etc/pam.d/password-auth then I can login via ssh but still not the console.

#account     [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] pam_sss.so

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, David.
