OK still trying to get graphical login working with SSSD + GDM, so here's more information about my system setup, with which I cannot login using an LDAP account through GDM. * I am using 6rolling * I am using base 6rolling install - nothing customized. * I am using SSSD (sssd-1.5.1-34.el6.x86_64) with LDAP for authentication and identification purposes. * I can log in as root * I can log in as a local user, created by root * Both the local user and root can log in using GDM (root, after editing pam.d/gdm) * I can log in with an LDAP account using SSH. * I can log in with an LDAP account into a terminal on the computer * When I go into runlevel 3 with "init 3" from a root account on a terminal, and log in as a user on another terminal, I can start X11 with the "startx" command. When I attempt to login using an LDAP account, here is the behaviour that I get: I click "other", enter my username, enter my password. The busy cursor appears, and then the screen blacks out and returns me back to my login screen. I figure there is something weird going on with GDM. Unfortunately, GDM is being coy with any possible errors, and, even when I set debug=true in /etc/gdm/custom.conf I get a plethora of debugging messages, none of which seem to hint to any errors. I can attach /etc/messages to an email if requested but I cannot see any errors. Here is what "id ctooley" returns when I run it as root btw: [root@heplw44 gdm]# id ctooley uid=110233(ctooley) gid=110233 groups=110233,34244(hep) Any clues in this would be immensely appreciated :) Thanks! -Chris TooleyDid this work under SL 6.0? -Connie Sieh
Well, the thing is, I don't know, because there was a separate problem which plagued SSSD versions lower than 1.4, to do with groups - so I never tried logging in with gdm...
I have a separate LDAP server which I will try on Monday to see if it's something with the LDAP server or just my configuration.
Thanks, -Chris
