Hi

Hm, there's nothing at all in the /var/log/sssd/krb5_child.log when I try
to login with SSH and enter a password.

kinit doesn't work.

$ kinit -k
kinit: Permission denied while getting initial credentials

For this test, I was root and then did a "su - user" and then "kinit -k".
Also after the "kinit -k", nothing is in the krb5_child.log.

Regards,
Alexander
