HI, I haven’t posted in a while, I hope everybody is doing well. I have a problem that I am having a difficult time diagnosing. To start, I want to say that we have a pretty large IPA environment. It generally works good. Most of our servers are of the same flavor RHEL6/7, and pull down their sssd/IPA RPMs from a standard repo. We also deploy sssd/ipa-client from SaltStack, so there’s not much variation on configuration. I have a client that is being very finicky, I am getting a message that says "Malformed representation of principal” in my krb5_child.log (when trying to log in). I’m really kind of an ends with the right way to troubleshoot this further. Here’s what I know;
1) I can kinit -k as root 2) I can kinit user@domain, even for the user in the sssd logs 3) I’ve blown away /var/lib/sss, deleted /etc/krb*, reinstalled sssd-common, sssd, & ipa-client. My logs are below. Would somebody be able to perhaps provide input on the best way to further troubleshoot this issue?
