Hello,
I suspect this is a result of outdated software; however, the
"Trouble-shooting" guide (URL
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Troubleshooting ) requested I post
occurrences of "System Error 4" encountered to this list...
My IPA Server is RHEL65 running ipa-server-3.0.0-37.el6.x86_64
in a lab environment. Other RHEL65 clients haven't demonstrated this
problem, but CentOS71 clients running
ipa-client-4.1.0-18.el7.centos.3.x86_64 fail to accept password
authentication and report messages similar to the following in
/var/log/secure :
Aug 24 10:34:49 testhost sshd[17787]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication
failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser=
rhost=testhost.example.com
user=testuser1 Aug 24 10:34:49 testhost sshd[17787]: pam_sss(sshd:auth):
authentication success; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=
testhost.example.com user=testuser1 Aug 24 10:34:49 testhost sshd[17787]:
pam_sss(sshd:account): Access denied for user testuser1: 4 (System error)
Aug 24 10:34:49 testhost sshd[17787]: Failed password for testuser1 from
10.10.1.232 port 39617 ssh2 Aug 24 10:34:49 testhost sshd[17787]: fatal:
Access denied for user testuser1 by PAM account configuration [preauth]
Help much appreciated in tracking down/fixing the root cause.
Thanks in advance,
