I can confirm the same issue with Ubuntu 18.04 (used the DVD). SSSD cannot resolve the the backend and then says it's offline. Restarting SSSD after a reboot always resolves the issue.
I've found two workarounds in 18.04: 1) Use your own resolv.conf and not rely on systemd-resolved.service. "unlink /etc/resolv.conf" and then create your own resolv.conf that doesn't rely on systemd-resolved. 2) Make SSSD start after systemd-resolved.service. I prefer this method because setting up the nameservers is still automatic (in case they change). cp -p /lib/systemd/system/sssd.service /etc/systemd/system/ sed -i 's/Wants.*$/Wants &\nAfter=systemd-resolved.service/g' /etc/systemd/system/sssd.service Hope this helps someone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723350 Title: sssd offline on boot, stays offline forever To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sssd/+bug/1723350/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
