RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/6138
When SSSD resolves AD users on behalf of slapi-nis, it can accept any user identifier, including user principal name (UPN) which may be different than the canonical user name which SSSD returns.
As result, the entry created by slapi-nis will be using canonical user name but the filter for search will refer to the original (aliased) name. The search will not match the newly created entry.
The issue can be fixed by returning two values for 'uid' attribute: the canonical one and the aliased one. This way the search will match. This is what ticket https://fedorahosted.org/slapi-nis/ticket/12 will do on slapi-nis side.
On FreeIPA side an update is needed to cn=users,cn=compat,$suffix definition to allow multiple 'uid' values because RDN generation function expects a single value of 'uid' attribute.
A change is to add explicit 'uid' attribute generation and change rdn processing to use %first() function:
{{{
dn: cn=users,cn=Schema Compatibility,cn=plugins,cn=config
cn: users
objectClass: top
objectClass: extensibleObject
schema-compat-container-group: cn=compat, dc=ipa,dc=ad,dc=test
schema-compat-container-rdn: cn=users
schema-compat-entry-attribute: %ifeq("ipaanchoruuid","%{ipaanchoruuid}","objectclass=ipaOverrideTarget","")
schema-compat-entry-attribute: cn=%{cn}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: objectclass=posixAccount
schema-compat-entry-attribute: gidNumber=%{gidNumber}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: gecos=%{cn}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: ipaanchoruuid=%{ipaanchoruuid}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: %ifeq("ipauniqueid","%{ipauniqueid}","ipaanchoruuid=:IPA:ipa.ad.test:%{ipauniqueid}","")
schema-compat-entry-attribute: uidNumber=%{uidNumber}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: %ifeq("ipauniqueid","%{ipauniqueid}","objectclass=ipaOverrideTarget","")
schema-compat-entry-attribute: loginShell=%{loginShell}
schema-compat-entry-attribute: homeDirectory=%{homeDirectory}

schema-compat-entry-rdn: uid=%first("%{uid}")
