Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Summary     : The D-Bus responder of the SSSD

Verification steps:

1. yum install sssd-dbus
2. Setup ipa server with realm name mil (for CAC cards) and realm testrelm.test for (non-CAC cards)
3. Make the required configuration changes for ipa client installation.
4. ipa-client-install --mkhomedir
5. Modify /etc/sssd/sssd.conf as follows:
[sssd]
services = nss, sudo, pam, ssh, ifp

[pam]
pam_cert_auth = True

service sssd restart

6. Import and trust the issuing CA of the CAC card to be tested under /etc/pki/nssdb
7. Add an ipa user and add the signing cert on the card to the ipa user using the following commands

ipa user-add <CAC card user name>

ipa user-add-cert <CAC card user name> --certificate=<signing cert on CAC card>

The following are the user lookup commands:

8. [root@dhcp129-123 ~]# dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe /org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe/Users org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe.Users.FindByCertificate string:"$(cat /tmp/lastca_sign.pem)"

An output similar to the following should be obtained:

         variant             array [
            ]
      )
   ]

Tested the same using non-CAC cards (Gemalto 64k smart card, gemalto 64K usb card, SC650 SCP01 and SCP02, SC330J in the non-IPA CA environment; Athena smartcard in the IPA CA environment).

Comment 3 Roshni 2016-01-18 15:02:27 UTC
A few additional point during verification:

1. The ipa server was installed on RHEL 6.8 and a replica was created on RHEL 7.2 (to use ipa user-add-cert cli)

2. For smartcards with certificate issued by IPA CA, the certs were added to the card using RHEL 7 machine because engine_pkcs11 is not available on RHEL 6.
opensc has to be installed on RHEL 6 client machine to detect the certs on the card using https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/opensc-0.12.2-2.el6.x86_64.rpm
