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.

Description Javier Ramirez 2014-07-25 15:55:08 UTC
Description of problem:
the RHEL6 Identity Management Guide, chapter 20.4.2 , "Applying the Configured sudo Policies to Hosts Using SSSD" provides instructions on how to configure sudo to use SSSD.  However, these instructions do not work unless libsss_sudo is installed. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5
Identity Management Guide
Managing Identity and Authorization Policies for Linux-Based Infrastructures
Edition 3.0.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Follow documentation at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/config-sudo-clients.html#example-configuring-sudo-sssd
2. Try to sudo
3. Observe error "sudo: Unable to dlopen /usr/lib64/libsss_sudo.so"
4. After installing libsss_sudo

Actual results:
"sudo: Unable to dlopen /usr/lib64/libsss_sudo.so"

Expected results:
Error should not occur, and if sudo is properly configured, access should be granted.

Additional info:
"yum install libsss_sudo" corrects error.

Please forget about step #4 of Steps to reproduce, it comes from a copy&paste error
