In a few cases recently (again yesterday), we noticed RHEL7.3's "realm join" taking more than 5 minutes (which timed out in our cli, and running realm directly worked but took ~6 minutes when normally would take a few seconds). As you can see from the verbose output below the two longest stretches (greater than 2 minutes! each) were waiting between launching "net ads join" and piping the password in (and similarly "net ads keytab create" had a long delay between starting the command and giving it the password). Looking at realmd service/realm-samba-enroll.c e.g. begin_net_process() calling out to realm_command_runv_async it was not obvious why there should be any delay between the launch of the net command the passing of the password (I did see one report of "net ads keytab create" hanging if the keytab already existed but that is not the same problem as this). Any idea how/why such long delays between launching net and inputting the password in realmd async code? > 5 minutes is a long time to do something that usually completes in 10 seconds
