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 jstephen 2023-04-17 19:18:06 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2176378 +++

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
