There should be HOWTO articles on how to do that. Jakub may have better
sources, but I see for example:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Deployment_Guide/SSSD-Troubleshooting.html

network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris must be set in the *client* Firefox machine.

FreeIPA 4.0+ Web UI should allow you to login at least with your user+password,
if SSO login fails. Does at least this part work? Because if not, there is some
error on the server side. It would be interesting to check if there are no
errors on the server in following logs:
- /var/log/httpd/error_log
- /var/log/krb5kdc.log
