sssd.conf file missing
Hello --
We are running CentOS 7.2 on a virtual machine, and we are trying to set up LDAP authentication. The ldap packages that are currently installed on the system are the following:

I ran the following commands to set up LDAP?AD authentication:
Quote:
# ln -s /bin/bash /bin/PHSshell
# ln -s /home /PHShome
# authconfig --enablesssdauth --enablemkhomedir --enablesssd –update
# chkconfig sssd on
# service sssd restart
|
However, when I run the service sssd restart command, I encounter the following error:
Quote:
Job for sssd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status sssd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

The output from the journalctl -xe command has the following entries:

I checked the /etc/sssd directory, and there is no sssd.conf file at that location. It appears the authconfig command is not creating the necessary file.
To get around this issue I tried copying the /usr/share/doc/sssd-common-1.13.0/sssd-example.conf file to the appropriate directory. However, the same error message appeared on-screen, and the journalctl -xe command listed the following:

How can I correct this problem?
Thanks. |
