Description Orion Poplawski 2022-03-30 20:05:09 UTC

Description of problem:

On EL8 with:

Profile ID: sssd
Enabled features:
- with-smartcard
- with-smartcard-lock-on-removal
- with-sudo
- with-custom-automount

A local user (tempmon uid 1000 in /etc/passwd) cannot access cron:

You (tempmon) are not allowed to access to (crontab) because of pam configuration.

pam_sssd:

[pam_reply] (0x0200): Returning [10]: User not known to the underlying authentication module to the client [CID #2872]


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
authselect-1.2.2-3.el8.x86_64
sssd-2.5.2-2.el8_5.4.x86_64

Note that I have also switched the crond auth to system-auth per bug #2005526
