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.

Fixed In Version: sssd-1.12.4-1.el6
Doc Type: Release Note
Doc Text:
sssd supports overriding automatically discovered AD site The Active Directory (AD) DNS site to which the client connects is discovered automatically by default. However, the default automatic search might not discover the most suitable AD site in certain setups. In such situations, you can now define the DNS site manually using the *ad_site* parameter in the *[domain/NAME]* section of the */etc/sssd/sssd.conf* file. For more information about *ad_site*, see the Identity Management Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/index.html

Description toni 2014-11-07 10:58:05 UTC 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-ad-1.11.6-30.el6.x86_64

Description of problem:

We are integrating a bunch of RHEL6.6 clients on a AD domain sites with sssd-ad and we would like to be able to force the use of a AD site from sssd configuration (instead of network assignment to sites in AD controllers).The reason is to avoid the creation of the 3000 subnets in AD where our RHEL clients are configured to be assigned to the same site. 

We tested ad provider using dns_discovery domain with the especific dns domain SiteName._sites.example.com and we observe dns requests with tcpdump. The conclusion is that:
- The ldap discovery that sssd does work uses the dns_discovery_domain, but
- Kerberos server discovery uses the realm name for the DNS query, not the dns_discovery_domain.

How reproducible:
We need a AD with sites configuration

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use the ad provider in sssd
2. Edit sssd.conf and add a dns_discovery_domain = SiteName._sites.example.com
3. tcpdump on port 53

Actual results:

 rhel6host1.example.com.46958 > adserver.example.com.domain: 45800+ SRV? _ldap._tcp.Valencia._sites.example.com. (56)

adserver.example.com.domain > rhel6host1.example.com.46958: 45800* 1/0/1 SRV adserver.example.com.:389 0 100 (112)

For kerberos
rhel6host1.example.com.47799 > adserver.example.com.domain: 48324+ SRV? _kerberos._udp.EXAMPLE.COM. (44)
rhel6host1.example.com.48368 > adserver.example.com.domain: 53003+ PTR? 60.122.168.192.in-addr.arpa. (45)
adserver.example.com.domain > rhel6host1.example.com.47799: 48324* 1/0/1 SRV adserver.example.com.:88 0 100 (100)
rhel6host1.example.com.40558 > adserver.example.com.domain: 15231+ SRV? _kerberos._tcp.EXAMPLE.COM. (44)

Expected results:
Ldap is correctly using dns_discovery_domain but kerberos is not using it.
