Hi Lucian,

Thanks for your reply. It is likely that the service is failing and
systemd is trying to restart it repeatedly, so we need to figure out why
that is happening. For this, we would need:

 - Look for something more in the journal from sssd_pam, sssd_nss and
sssd_be (using journalctl -e -u <unit_name>). It would even be helpful
if you could check the journal itself to see if anything elseis going on
that might affect these units.

 - Could you provide the logs under /var/log/sssd/ ? What debug level
have you set in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf?

 - Could you be so kind as to provide us with the mentioned conf file
above -anonymized if necessary to not expose personal data-?

 - For Noble, we patched sssd due to the CVE-2023-3758. Before this
patch was applied, did you experience this issue with version
2.9.4-1.1ubuntu6 too?

 - You mentioned an automation script. Could you also share it so that
we can get a series of steps to reproduce the issue? The environment
configuration or other quick set-up will be necessary later to process
the bug as a Stable Release Upgrade (SRU) [1] as this affects a Long
Term Support (LTS) series.

I was also looking for similar issues upstream because it is weird to me
that this kind of regression (if appropriate) isn't occurring more
generally. I found this issue older than yours [2] - so it couldn't be
related with the CVE applied- but with also a 60 timeout [3]. Do you put
the timeout in the conf or through the script with a "sleep 60"?

I will mark the bug as “Incomplete” while waiting to hear from you.
Please, set it back to "New" when you provide the information requested
so we can go further with this.
