[Freeipa-users] 14: No supported authentication methods available

I have an AWS instance running Centos 6.7 correctly configured for freeipa but I needed to make a backup machine which would remain live.

I created a clone of the machine and changed the host name and the settings in /etc/hosts. When I tried to run ipa-client-install it told me to run the uninstall which I did. This had the worrying effect of not being able to log into my original live server but thankfully after a while it came good. I don't know why.

Back on the new server I ran 'ipa-client-install --enable-dns-updates -mkhomedir' and it seemed to run ok. The host was created on the freeipa GUI and I added it to the same host group as the original server. But when I try to log in via SSH I get the error 'No supported authentication methods available'. I do have root access via the AWS Key file.

As far as I can tell all the relevant settings seem the same between the two servers but one works and the other doesn't. I can kinit and klist using my freeipa account. 'getent netgroup my-servergroup' works fine.

I can't seem to find anything relevant in the sssd logs and /var/log/secure just give me the same error of no supported authentication methods available

I have noticed in /var/log/messages when I restart sssd and error which may be relevant but can't find anything useful so far

sssd[be[my.domain.net]]: dereference processing failed : Input/output error

Thanks

Terry
