Hi,

as mentioned in man sssd.conf "The snippet files require the same owner and permissions as sssd.conf. Which are by default root:root and 0600.", please check ownership and permissions of /etc/sssd/conf.d/certificate_verification.conf.

bye,
Sumit

[root@master ~]# ll  /etc/sssd/conf.d/certificate_verification.conf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 52 Jul  6 07:28 /etc/sssd/conf.d/certificate_verification.conf

I wonder if this is a duplicate of bz 2211511?

Hi,

I think there is a fair chance since the same config file name is used in the STIG. It looks like the bash backend make sure the permissions are right but I have not seen anything related e.g. in the ansible backened.

Vojtech, can you have a look?

Sumit
