[Freeipa-users] ssh and sudo password authentication not working with freeipa-client 3.3.4-0ubuntu3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04

Tue Oct 6 09:26:42 UTC 2015

Hi

With further debugging, I discovered, that I messed up the
/etc/sssd/sssd.conf file. There, I added:

…
[domain/customer.company.internal]

krb5_realm = customer.company.internal
…

Exactly like that. With "krb5_realm = customer.company.internal"; ie. with
the realm in lowercase letters.

After having changed that to uppercase letters (ie. "krb5_realm =
CUSTOMER.COMPANY.INTERNAL"), it works fine.

Thanks for your time and help ;)

Cheers,
Alexander
