[Pkg-sssd-devel] Bug#676685: libnss-sss: Installing libnss-sss causes name lookups to fail

[Geoff Clements]

Package: libnss-sss
Version: 1.8.1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I'm currently authenticating against an LDAP server and I have the follwoing 
packages installed and working:
libnss-ldapd
libpam-ldapd
libpam-ccreds
unscd
nslcd

I am trying to make use of sssd instead so I have removed the 
packages listed above and installed:
libnss-sss
libpam-sss
sssd
sssd-tools

However when I do this I can no longer resolve usernames other than those 
names held locally in /etc/passwd.

I have set up the config. file for sssd using the example one as a template, 
also I have set the debug level to 9. This provides lots of information in 
the log files and I can see the monitor process ping (sucessfully) the other 
processes. However, nothing at all appears in the logs when I try to resolve 
a user name.
