Hi
I'm trying to migrate some nis accounts to RHEL 6 IdM while still
keeping the original passwords.
I followed the instructions at:
http://www.freeipa.org/page/NIS_accounts_migration_preserving_Passwords
The passwords are in SHA-512 format and I have been testing the
migration with commands like this (generated via a script from my nis
passwd file) on my IdM server:
$ ipa user-add xxx --first=NIS --last=USER --gidnumber=xxxx --uid=xxxx
'--gecos=test account' --homedir=/home/xxxx --shell=/bin/bash --setattr
userpassword='{SHA-512}xxxxxxx'
where the xxxxxxx is the hashed password from the NIS password file with
the leading $6$ stripped off.
Then I remove nis from the passwd: line in /etc/nsswitch.conf so I'm
left with:
passwd: files sss
and the account that I migrated cannot log in.
From the sssd log file (below) it looks like its trying to migrate the
password but failing with an LDAP authentication failure.
I'd appreciate any pointers to how to find out whats going wrong here.
Accounts which I created manually in the web gui are working ok.
Thanks
