sssd performance on large domains
by zfnoctis＠gmail.com 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.

sssd-krb5, krb5_ccachedir, DIR-cache-store...
by Jostein Fossheim 15 Dec '20

We are working with several kerberos-REALMS and are trying to get our clients to store their kerberos tickets in a DIRECTORY. This seems to work nicely for clients not authenticating at login, with the following configuration set in /etc/krb5.conf. ... [libdefaults] ... default_ccache_name = DIR:/tmp/krb5cc_%{uid} ... user@server:~$ klist Ticket cache: DIR::/tmp/krb5cc_888/tkt Default principal: user@REALM Valid starting Expires Service principal 09/22/19 17:35:50 09/23/19 17:35:48 krbtgt/user@REALM Each ticket is stored in a separate file. For clients using sssd for login, I want to set up the same behavior. But when I attempt to login the system creates an "/tmp/krb5cc_${UiD}" - but here the directory don't get the excutable bit set (that is the directory get 0600-permission), and the login fails. In the man-page from Debian-buster (sssd-version: 1.16.3), there are to settings that seems to regulate this behaviour : krb5_ccachedir (string) Directory to store credential caches. All the substitution sequences of krb5_ccname_template can be used here, too, except %d and %P. The directory is created as private and owned by the user, with permissions set to 0700. Default: /tmp krb5_ccname_template (string) Location of the user's credential cache. Three credential cache types are currently supported: "FILE", "DIR" and "KEYRING:persistent". The cache can be specified either as TYPE:RESIDUAL, or as an absolute path, which implies the "FILE" type. In the template, the following sequences are substituted: [...] If the template ends with 'XXXXXX' mkstemp(3) is used to create a unique filename in a safe way. When using KEYRING types, the only supported mechanism is "KEYRING:persistent:%U", which uses the Linux kernel keyring to store credentials on a per-UID basis. This is also the recommended choice, as it is the most secure and predictable method. The default value for the credential cache name is sourced from the profile stored in the system wide krb5.conf configuration file in the [libdefaults] section. The option name is default_ccache_name. See krb5.conf(5)'s PARAMETER EXPANSION paragraph for additional information on the expansion format defined by krb5.conf. NOTE: Please be aware that libkrb5 ccache expansion template from krb5.conf(5) uses different expansion sequences than SSSD. Default: (from libkrb5) ... I have tried to both set and unset, the two parameters in question like this: krb5_ccachedir = /tmp/krb5cc_%U krb5_ccname_template = DIR: %d krb5_ccname_template = DIR:%d/krb5cc_%U_XXXXXX But the configuration-options seems to be ignored, no matter what I do, and I have the same behavior: A non-executable directory is created and the user is unable to login. If I set the +x bit on the directory manually as the root-user, everything works.

sssd with samba
by Edouard Guigné 20 Nov '20

20 Nov '20

Dear sssd users, I would like to get informations about the use of sssd with samba (centos 7, samba 4.8.3). I need it because I configured a samba share, accessible with sssd. The authentication is against a windows AD. My /etc/nsswitch.cnf is configured only with sssd : /passwd: files sss// //shadow: files sss// //group: files sss/ For an other purpose, I set an sftpd access also configured with sssd against the AD. I followed some discussions on the samba user list about samba + sssd. I would like to understand if there are some issues with sssd and samba 4.8.3 on centos 7 ? Or is it with next RHEL 8 ? /The RHEL 8 documentation states this: // //// //"Red Hat only supports running Samba as a server with the winbindd // //service to provide domain users and groups to the local system. Due to // //certain limitations, such as missing Windows access control list (ACL) // //support and NT LAN Manager (NTLM) fallback, SSSD is not supported." // //// //https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/deploying_different_types_of_servers/assembly_using-samba-as-a-server_deploying-different-types-of-servers//// //// //What's confusing is that the RHEL 7 documentation says: // //// //"Prior to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1, only Winbind provided this // //functionality. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 and later, you no longer // //need to run Winbind and SSSD in parallel to access SMB shares. For // //example, accessing the Access Control Lists (ACLs) no longer requires // //Winbind on SSSD clients." // //// //and // //// //"4.2.2. Determining Whether to Use SSSD or Winbind for SMB Shares // //For most SSSD clients, using SSSD is recommended:" // //// //and most worrisome, in my use case: // //// //"In environments with direct Active Directory integration where the // //clients use SSSD for general Active Directory user mappings, using // //Winbind for the SMB ID mapping instead of SSSD can result in // //inconsistent mapping." / In my case, running samba 4.8.3 with SSSD on centos 7 do I need to : - enable and start winbind service , in conjunction to sssd ? - or only sssd is enough with samba ? - Do I have to fear issues in next release of sssd for the support of samba ? especially for acls support ?/ / A nsswitch.conf like : passwd: files sss winbind shadow: files sss winbind group: files sss winbind or passwd: files winbind sss shadow: files winbind sss group: files winbind sss Does not seem to work... I test and this is not stable. Best Regards, Edouard

Is there an RFC or detailed design document describing SSSD's ID Mapping algorithm?
by Jeff Thornsen 23 Jan '20

23 Jan '20

The reason I ask is because I use a bunch of storage appliances that offer Secure-NFS (NETAPP, EMC UNITY, etc.), but they only support NIS, IDMU, RFC2307, and RFC2307bis style Identity Mapping, all of which require manual assignment of UID/GID numbers to objects in LDAP, which is untenable for large environments. Microsoft even removed Unix Attribute editor from their LDAP GUI for the RFC2307 attributes in Windows Server 2016 to push people away from using rfc2307. I would like to be able to provide a link to an RFC or design document describing the SSSD ID Mapping algorithm so that these 3rd party vendors can incorporate an identical identity mapping algorithm into their products, so that I can use their Secure-NFS product in conjunction with sssd and have the uid and gid numbers match up with the other Linux hosts in our environment.

Can SSSD sort the autofs map
by Oguzhan Eris 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Hi everyone. First off, thanks to everyone who's ever worked on SSSD. It's easily in my top 5 favorite FOSS projects out there. I am not sure if this is the right way to ask for an enhancement, or whether I should file an issue on GitHub, but I am running into an issue that's described in this Red Hat page https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3673501 (login required) Basically for an automount map where I need nested top level paths: /mnt/foo /mnt/foo/bar each defined by their own map objects. SSSD does not handle this (neither does LDAP directly from autofs) because the return map from LDAP is unsorted, and if the maps are provided to autofs ordered as: /mnt/foo/bar /mnt/foo the /mnt/foo map masks the previous /mnt/foo/bar map and you'll only get the entries from /mnt/foo Using file based mount maps, one can easily sort the top level maps, and get around this issue. Would it be possible to have SSSD return the maps from LDAP query in a sorted way? There is an LDAP control that most LDAP servers support to return a sorted output, ( https://ldapwiki.com/wiki/Server%20Side%20Sort%20Control ) but with so many clients and a large list, this might be better left to the client to do instead. I'm happy to help out if someone can point me in the right direction in the code. Thanks again

How to have a dynamic ldap_default_bind_dn value in sssd.conf?
by Oscar Torrente 06 Dec '19

06 Dec '19

Hello. I'm using a LDAP server for authentication/identification of users. I've set its ACIs so that every user just can access to its own data But now I have a problem in sssd clients: I should put the correct ldap_default_bind_dn value to make the request, a value which should be dynamic as it's typed on gdm/login/ssh/whatever. How can I do that? I don't want to write the admin's cn (and password!) in client's sssd.conf files! Thanks!! P.S: I've asked the same topic in https://serverfault.com/questions/993030/how-to-have-a-dynamic-ldap-default… but sadly there's no answer....

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? Thanks! Bolke * https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/FreeIPA_Guide/trust-gro…

Debian10 and self-signed cert
by Todor Petkov 28 Nov '19

28 Nov '19

Hello, I am trying to configure sssd authentication on Debian 10.2, sssd 1.16.3, against 389-ds with self-signed certificate. In /etc/sssd/sssd.conf I have the line "ldap_tls_reqcert = never" line, but when I start sssd manually on the command line, it says " [sss_ldap_init_sys_connect_done] (0x0020): ldap_install_tls failed: [Connect error] [Key usage violation in certificate has been detected.]" Can someone give me a hint how to teach sssd to ignore the certificate? Regards,
