[SSSD-users] Re: hbac_eval_user_element timing
I assume you are referring to IPA HBAC evaluation, if so
hbac_eval_user_element() reads the groups from the originalMemberOf
attribute of the user object already stored in the SSSD cache. This
operation should be quite fast because it is reading from the cache on
the filesystem. The actual retrieval of group memberships happens before
HBAC evaluation so you may want to check earlier in the logs if it seems
like the problem is with incorrect group membership retrieval.
You can check the the user cache object information if you install the
ldb-tools rpm:
# ldbsearch -H /var/lib/sss/db/cache_<domain>.ldb name=<username>*
Kind regards,
Justin Stephenson
