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).

Description of problem:
- Activating Session Recording disables IPA/IDM access
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
- RHEL 8.7
- cockpit-session-recording-12-1.el8.noarch
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. enable IPA/IDM login on a client
2. Install cockpit-session-recording: yum install cockpit-session-recording
No file /etc/sssd/conf.d/sssd-session-recording.conf is created by default
3. Go to Cockpit web page and select
4. Set the SSSD Config to Scope = All
5. Save configuration
The file /etc/sssd/conf.d/sssd-session-recording.conf is then created:
------------------------
[sssd]
enable_files_domain=true
services=nss
[session_recording]
scope=all
exclude_users=
exclude_groups=
------------------------
6. After that the IPA/IDM login fails
Actual results:
- The IPA/IDM login fails
Expected results:
- IPA/IDM login should be possible after activating cockpit-session-recording
Root Cause Analysis:
Due to the override for "services" in The file /etc/sssd/conf.d/sssd-session-recording.conf
the IPA/IDM access is disabled.
The default /etc/sssd/sssd.conf file sets the services to
services = nss, pam, ssh, sudo
Workaround:
Remove the line "services=nss" from /etc/sssd/conf.d/sssd-session-recording.conf
