#3258 [RFE] Provide a way to troubleshhot applications that use SSSD for authentication and identity
Closed: duplicate 6 years ago Opened 7 years ago by dpal.

Create a way to test whether SSSD is properly configured and able to perform authentication and identity lookup for a layered application like Keycloak (or one that uses Apache modules as described here: Web App Authentication).

User story:

As an administrator debugging authentication failure in my layered application I want to determine whether SSSD is working properly performing authentication via PAM and delivering attributes needed for the layered application via infopipe. I would like to have a tool that would mimic my layered application and execute the same interfaces from SSSD that my application is supposed to use in the way it is supposed to use them and report any issues or inconsistencies found.

This would be really helpful utility, will help in reducing number of incoming SSSD cases.
How?
1. We can ask customer to run this utility to do SSSD Authentication health check.
2. This utility can prompt the Issue area{Eg: Join not done or so}, if system is not able to join AD(for example) using SSSD.
