sssd performance on large domains
by zfnoctis＠gmail.com 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

Hi, I'm wondering if there are any plans to improve sssd performance on large active directory domains (100k+ users, 40k+ groups), or if there are settings I am not aware of that can greatly improve performance, specifically for workstation use cases. Currently if I do not set "ignore_group_members = True" in sssd.conf, logins can take upwards of 6 minutes and "sssd_be" will max the CPU for up to 20 minutes after logon, which makes it a non-starter. The reason I want to allow group members to be seen is that I want certain domain groups to be able to perform elevated actions using polkit. If I ignore group members, polkit reports that the group is empty and so no one can elevate in the graphical environment. Ultimately this means that Linux workstations are at a severe disadvantage since they cannot be bound to the domain and have the normal set of access features users and IT expect from macOS or Windows. Distributions used: Ubuntu 16.04 (sssd 1.13.4-1ubuntu1.1), Ubuntu 16.10 (sssd 1.13.4-3) and Fedora 24 (sssd-1.13.4-3.fc24). All exhibit the same problems. I've also tried "ldap_group_nesting_level = 1" without seeing any noticeable improvement with respect to performance. Putting the database on /tmp isn't viable as these are workstations that will reboot semi-frequently, and I don't believe this is an I/O bound performance issue anyways. Thanks for your time.

ID Views for IPA ID Views for AD users inconsistent resolution
by Louis Abel 01 Aug '21

01 Aug '21

I didn't get a response in #sssd, so I figured I'll try here at the mail list. # rpm -q sssd ipa-server sssd-1.16.0-19.el7_5.5.x86_64 ipa-server-4.5.4-10.el7_5.3.x86_64 I've been scratching my head trying to resolve this particular issue. I'm having issues with AD users where when they login, they'll get the UID/GID assigned in the ID views correctly, but only some of the time. Other times, they won't get the id view assigned to them. This is all done in the default trust view. What makes this issue even more interesting is that out of my 6 domain controllers, sometimes it'll be one server out of the six that does it, sometimes it's two. But it's never the same ones, so it's difficult to track the particular issue down. What's even more interesting is this is not occurring with some users (like my own). I have yet to see it occur with my account or even the rest of my team's accounts. One of the things I tried to do is delete the ID views of the offending users and recreate them to no avail. I put SSSD into debug mode on the IPA servers and tried to get some relevant logs and such to try and figure this out. Below is my SSSD configuration, ldb info, and debug logs (removing private information where possible). I'm trying to determine if this is either a bug within SSSD or if this is a misconfiguration on my part. $ ldbsearch -H cache_ipa.example.com.ldb name=user.name(a)ad.example.com originalADuidNumber uidNumber originalADgidNumber gidNumber asq: Unable to register control with rootdse! # record 1 dn: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb originalADuidNumber: 55616902 originalADgidNumber: 55616902 uidNumber: 55616902 gidNumber: 55616902 $ ipa idoverrideuser-show "Default Trust View" user.name(a)ad.example.com Anchor to override: user.name(a)ad.example.com UID: 40001 GID: 40001 Home directory: /home/user.name Login shell: /bin/bash $ ldbsearch -H timestamps_ipa.example.com.ldb | less dn: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb objectCategory: user originalModifyTimestamp: 20180823172515.0Z entryUSN: 92632390 initgrExpireTimestamp: 1535133621 lastUpdate: 1535128235 dataExpireTimestamp: 1535133635 distinguishedName: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb ## DEBUG LOGS (Fri Aug 24 16:30:12 2018) [sssd[be[ipa.example.com]]] [sysdb_set_entry_attr] (0x0200): Entry [name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb] has set [ts_cache] attrs.

Enumerate users from external group from AD trust
by Bolke de Bruin 29 Nov '19

29 Nov '19

Hello, I have sssd 1.13.00 working against FreeIPA 4.2 domain. This domain has a trust relationship with a active directory domain. One of the systems we are using requires to enumerate all users in groups by (unfortunate) design (Apache Ranger). This is done by using “getent group”. During this enumeration the full user list for a group that has a nested external member group* is not always returned so we thought to add “getent group mygroup” in order to get more details. Unfortunately this does not seem to work consistently: sometimes this gives information sometimes it does not: [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004: [root@master centos]# id bolke(a)ad.local UID=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local) GID=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local) groepen=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local),1796200513(domain users@ad.local),1796201108(test@ad.local) [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004:bolke@ad.local <mailto:bolke@ad.local> If I clear the cache (sss_cache -E) the entry is gone again: [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004: My question is how do I get sssd to enumerate *all users* in a group consistently?

SSSD strangeness
by simonc99＠hotmail.com 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

Hi All We've got SSSD 1.13.0 installed as part of a Centos 7.2.1511 installation. We've used realmd to join the host concerned to our 2008R2 AD system. This went really well, and consequently we've been using SSSD to provide login services and kerberos integration for our fairly large hadoop system. The authconfig that's implicitly run as part of realmd produces the following sssd.conf: [sssd] domains = <joined domain> config_file_version = 2 services = nss, pam [pam] debug_level = 0x0080 [nss] timeout = 20 force_timeout = 600 debug_level = 0x0080 [domain/<joined domain>] ad_domain = <joined domain> krb5_realm = <JOINED DOMAIN> realmd_tags = manages-system joined-with-samba cache_credentials = true id_provider = ad krb5_store_password_if_offline = True default_shell = /bin/bash ldap_id_mapping = True use_fully_qualified_names = False fallback_homedir = /home/%u@%d access_provider = simple simple_allow_groups = <AD group allowing logins> krb5_use_kdc_info = False entry_cache_timeout = 300 debug_level = 0x0080 ad_server = <active directory server> As I've said - this works really well. We did have some stability issues initially, but they've been fixed by defining the 'ad_server' rather than using autodiscovery. Logins work fine, kerberos TGTs are issued on login, and password changes are honoured correctly. However, in general day to day use, we have noticed a few anomalies, that we just can't track down. Firstly (this has happened a few times), a user will change their AD password (via a Windows PC). Subsequent logins - sometimes with specific client software - fail with pam_sss(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=<remote PC name> user=<username> pam_sss(sshd:auth): received for user <username>: 17 (failure setting user credentials) So in this example, the person concerned has changed their AD password. Further attempts to access this system via SSH work fine. However, using SFTP doesn't work (the above is output into /var/log/secure). There are no local controls on sftp logins, and the user concerned was working fine (using both sftp and ssh) until they updated their password. There is no separate sftp daemon running, and it only affects one individual currently (but we have seen some very similar instances before) The second issue we have is around phantom groups in AD. Hadoop uses an id -Gn command to see group membership for authorisation. With some users - we've seen 6 currently - we see certain groups failing to be looked up: id -Gn <username> id: cannot find name for group ID xxxxyyyyy <group name> <group name> <group name> <group name> <etc...> The xxxxyyyyy indicates: xxxx = hashed realm name yyyyy = RID from group in AD We can't find any group with that number on the AD side! We can work around this by adding a local group (into /etc/group) for the GIDs affected. This means the id -Gn runs correctly, and the hadoop namenode can function correctly - but this is a workaround and we'd like to get to the bottom of the issue. Rather than flooding this post now with logfiles, just thought I'd see if this looked familiar to anyone. Happy to upload any logs, amend logging levels, etc. Many thanks Simon

If I replace it by a static file, then the problem is gone. Question is, how can I tell systemd to wait for resolv.conf? Is there some timeout in the backend I could adjust? Does it wait for the network at all? Every helpful comment is highly appreciated Regards Harri

Failed gssapi-with-mic
by Sergei Gerasenko 10 Dec '18

10 Dec '18

Hi, I've run into a dead end debugging a case of passwordless authentication between two IPA'd hosts. Running `sshd -p 5000 -d` on the receiving host (let's call it HOST_B), I see this: ``` Postponed gssapi-with-mic for postgres from x.x.x.x port 57607 ssh2 [preauth] debug1: Received some client credentials debug1: ssh_gssapi_k5login_exists: Checking existence of file /home/USER/.k5login Failed gssapi-with-mic for postgres from x.x.x.x port 57607 ssh2 ``` The client then gets an interactive password prompt. Here are some facts and things I've tried: * If I put the user into `.k5login` on the receiving host and it works. * The receiving host is correctly enrolled into IPA. I can ssh from it to other hosts using GSSAPI. * I can issue `kvno host/HOST_B` on the connecting host and I get a service ticket. * It looks like all this happens before any pam stuff kicks in (?). So I'm ruling PAM issues out. * No errors in the logs of the KDCs. * The ticket from the connecting host is not expired. * The sssd version is 1.16.0. * Turning up the debugging in sssd with `debug_level = 7` for the domain section doesn't reveal anything obvious. What else could I check? Thanks for any ideas, SG

Access alternative yubikey slots
by Orion Poplawski 04 Dec '18

04 Dec '18

I configured a YubiKey on Windows using the YubiKey minidriver with the following certificates: - my "orion" certificate - went into slot 9a PIV Auth - A MacOS keychain cert per their docs - when into slot 9d Key Management - Another auth certificate for "orion-admin" - went into slot 82 I'm able to authenticate on Windows as either orion or orion-admin, but on Linux with sssd it does not see the orion-admin certificate. What needs to happen to support this? Thanks! -- Orion Poplawski Manager of NWRA Technical Systems 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/

Problem with resolving unqualified group names
by Ondrej Valousek 23 Nov '18

23 Nov '18

Hi List, I have noticed that in my case both getent passwd <username>@<domain> and getent passwd <username> works, but getent group <groupname>@<domain> does not, only: getent group <groupname> works. Is that expected behavior? Thanks, Ondrej

Fortunately every group needed should be in forest ad1.example.com. > Setting 'subdomain_provider = none' should disable all kind of domain > discovery. I couldn't find this in the man pages. Where is this parameter documented? Is it already available in package sssd-1.13.3-60.el6.x86_64 on RHEL/CentOS 6.10? Is it a global or a domain-specific parameter? We tried that (both global and domain), but no change. Still all domains are tried which are found beneath DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=ad1,DC=example,DC=com. My impression is also that this is done recursively leading to sssd contacting 70+ domains... > But depending on the other stetting you might e.g. have to > set ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid to tell SSSD about the domain SID of > the local domain to make automatic id-mapping work. No ID-mapping needed in this case. The MS AD entries contains uidNumber and gidNumber attributes. Ciao, Michael.
