Jeff, if you're seeing sssd_dp segfaults, can you get us a core dump? We're planning to remove the sssd_dp in the 0.7.0 release in a few weeks, but we're also going to be doing a 0.6.1 maintenance release (that we planned to release on Monday)
If you can get us a core dump (or at least a backtrace), I'll see what I can do about fixing it for the 0.6.1 release.

I've seen an occasional and (as of yet) impossible to reproduce dp
segfault with sssd 0.6-1. Would it be worth trying to track down? It
looked like there were patches merged to remove the dp process
entirely. When sssd_dp segfaults, the watchdog doesn't restart it and
bad things happen. That leads to nasty messages in syslog like:

Oct  9 18:20:01.122 nameobscured crond[6931]: pam_sss(crond:account):
Request to sssd failed.

Restarting sssd fixes the problem but this is a bit disconcerting. Is
master in shape to snapshot and build rpms from or should I wait for
the 0.7 release without sssd_dp? This is the second time we've seen
this since 0.6 was released but it is still a legit problem.
