#1235 Invalid installation of nss-pam-ldapd based IPA client
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by mkosek.

When nss-pam-ldapd is installed on the system and IPA client is installed without SSSD (--no-sssd option of ipa-client-install), client configuration is invalid and authentication to IPA fails.

This is because authconfig overwrites our configuration in /etc/nslcd.conf. Plus, nslcd service is not started.


How to test:
1) Test with nss-ldap package

  • install nss-ldap on the client machine
  • install IPA client with --no-sssd option
  • `id admin', logging to the machine should work (even after the

restart, i.e. correct services are run after the restart)
2) Test with nss-pam-ldapd

  • uninstall nss-ldap, install nss-pam-ldapd
  • install IPA client with --no-sssd option
  • `id admin', logging to the machine should work

3) Test with SSSD

  • install IPA client
  • `id admin', logging to the machine should work

Resent with proper formating:
