Hello,
I have an IPA cluster of 5 servers, running version 4.9.6-10. The
system was put in production Feb 2021 and has been updated several
times. These updates have sometimes not gone well:

I'll try to keep this concise. A user was not able to access an NFS
share provided by our EMC Isilon. They were a member of the group that
owned the directory/share. But not always, it depended upon what Isilon
IP was mounted. After many hours of troubleshooting, we found the group
was newly created and different than our old groups.
The group had an attribute we are not yet familiar with:
ipaNTSecurityIdentifier
The group also had an objectClass none of our others have: ipaNTGroupAttrs
This brought to my attention an issue I saw last week when trying to add
an IPA replica to our cluster. This is new prompting that I have not
seen before while setting up replicas:
WARNING: 1755 existing users or groups do not have a SID identifier
assigned.
Installer can run a task to have ipa-sidgen Directory Server plugin generate
the SID identifier for all these users. Please note, in case of a high
number of users and groups, the operation might lead to high replication
traffic and performance degradation. Refer to ipa-adtrust-install(1) man
page
for details.
Do you want to run the ipa-sidgen task? [no]:

I'm trying to understand the thread "Login failed due to an unknown
reason"
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/4S4QQDC4FBVTA4GYWWVBPKGYN3MF4UJ6/#RCHSIOBUXQJ32JVHAVH6QB2C2GRZJMGC
where Alexander explains how to fix SIDs. Also there is a thread: IPA
WebGUI login fails with "Login failed due to an unknown reason".
Are SIDs now required? An aside, in one of my install-replica attempts
last week I was asked to provide a NetBIOS name. :(
My IPA cluster is now wanting to do these SMB/AD sorts of things. Newly
created groups now have ipaNTSecurityIdentifier, which causes permission
issues when mounting NFS on our Isilon. Are we forced down this road or
do I have something misconfigured that is "half-way" doing AD? I'd like
to learn about the big picture.
Thank you,
Scott Serr
