[Freeipa-users] RHEL 6.9 AD Smart Card login

I have created a two way trust between my IDM server and Active 
Directory.    I have been able to successful get RHEL 7.3 IDM server and 
RHEL 7.3 IDM clients to allow Active Directory login using CAC smart 
cards into Gnome.   I'm using SSSD for the smart card login process 
instead of authconfig and pkcs11.   I'm currently trying to get the same 
thing working for RHEL 6.9,  but I have not been able to get it to work. 
The latest version of SSSD on RHEL 6.9 is 1.13.3 and from my 
understanding I need to have at least 1.14.0 for SSSD to handle AD smart 
card logins.    So,  I have tried to configure pam_pkcs11.conf file to 
use the pwent mapper to link the Common Name (CN) to the Active 
Directory User account.   I have created an User ID Override for the AD 
user and  added CN name from the Certificate on the smart card into the 
GECOS field.   I also have added all three certificates from the CAC 
smart card into the User ID Override.

When I try and log in,  I get this error message in /var/log/secure:
Apr  6 13:21:57 site-lws05 pam: gdm-smartcard: 
pam_pkcs11(gdm-smartcard:auth): pam_get_pwd() failed: Conversation error
Apr  6 13:22:17 site-lws05 pam: gdm-smartcard: 
pam_pkcs11(gdm-smartcard:auth): find_user() failed:  on cert #1
Apr  6 13:22:17 site-lws05 pam: gdm-smartcard: 
pam_pkcs11(gdm-smartcard:auth): find_user() failed:  on cert #2
Apr  6 13:22:17 site-lws05 pam: gdm-smartcard: 
pam_pkcs11(gdm-smartcard:auth): no valid certificate which meets all 
requirements found

Here is the some details:
IDM Domain: idm.domain.local
Windows Domain: domain.local
RHEL 7.3 IDM Server: site-idm01.idm.domain.local
RHEL 6.9 IDM Client : site-lws05.idm.domain.local

When I run the getent command on local accounts and IDM accounts I get 
user details,  but when I run the command on AD accounts it doesn't find 
them.   So,  I'm wondering if that's why its not finding the CN name in 
the GECOS field.    I'm trying to avoid using the cn_map on the clients, 
because we have a large amount of users and thats alot of extra work to 
manage that file.    That's why I wanted to use the pwent mapper.
Here is my SSSD config file from the RHEL 6.9 client:

Here is my nssswitch file from the RHEL 6.9 client:
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# An example Name Service Switch config file. This file should be
# sorted with the most-used services at the beginning.
#
# The entry '[NOTFOUND=return]' means that the search for an
# entry should stop if the search in the previous entry turned
# up nothing. Note that if the search failed due to some other reason
# (like no NIS server responding) then the search continues with the
# next entry.
#
# Valid entries include:
#
#       nisplus                 Use NIS+ (NIS version 3)
#       nis                     Use NIS (NIS version 2), also called YP
#       dns                     Use DNS (Domain Name Service)
#       files                   Use the local files
#       db                      Use the local database (.db) files
#       compat                  Use NIS on compat mode
#       hesiod                  Use Hesiod for user lookups
#       [NOTFOUND=return]       Stop searching if not found so far
#
# To use db, put the "db" in front of "files" for entries you want to be
# looked up first in the databases
#
# Example:
#passwd:    db files nisplus nis
#shadow:    db files nisplus nis
#group:     db files nisplus nis
passwd:     files sss
shadow:     files sss
group:      files sss
#hosts:     db files nisplus nis dns
hosts:      files dns
# Example - obey only what nisplus tells us...
#services:   nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
#networks:   nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
#protocols:  nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
#rpc:        nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
#ethers:     nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
#netmasks:   nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files
