Section Number and Name: 
5.3.6. Configuring the Red Hat Identity Management Server to Use Cross-Forest Trust

Describe the issue: 
The customer can proceed with the steps mentioned. However, the login on Satellite will not work properly when trying to authenticate using one AD account. It will only work for IDM users.

Suggestions for improvement: 

From (current conf)
---
[nss]
user_attributes=+mail, +sn, +givenname
[domain/EXAMPLE.com]
...
krb5_store_password_if_offline = True
ldap_user_extra_attrs=email:mail, lastname:sn, firstname:givenname

[ifp]
allowed_uids = ipaapi, root
user_attributes=+email, +firstname, +lastname
---

To
---
[domain/EXAMPLE.com]
...
krb5_store_password_if_offline = True
ldap_user_extra_attrs=email:mail, lastname:sn, firstname:givenname

[nss]
user_attributes=+email, +firstname, +lastname

[ifp]
allowed_uids = ipaapi, root
user_attributes=+email, +firstname, +lastname

Note. Above, only the NSS section was updated. 

Also, reinforce that this configuration should be applied only on the IDM server(s), this will not be necessary on Satellite server itself.


One additional enhancement in the same section is, that there is one example of how to verify, using the DBUS command. It's valid to add another note mentioning that this command should be executed on IDM and Satellite Server, and the output should be the same on both, below you can see an example:
---
# dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe /org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe.GetUserAttr string:user1 array:string:email,firstname,lastname
method return time=1708114064.187163 sender=:1.330 -> destination=:1.334 serial=8 reply_serial=2
   array [
      dict entry(
         string "email"
         variant             array [
               string "user1"
            ]
      )
      dict entry(
         string "firstname"
         variant             array [
               string "First Name User1"
            ]
      )
      dict entry(
         string "lastname"
         variant             array [
               string "Last Name User1"
            ]
      )
   ]

Additional information: 

I'm not sure if you believe it to be valid, but, assuming the customer apply the change above, eventually, this will not be replicated in that moment, causing some sort of confusion, in order to guarantee this change is in effect, we can provide the step below
---
systemctl stop sssd ; rm -rf /var/lib/sss/{db,mc}/* ; systemctl start sssd
---

This will guarantee that there is no cache, and that the latest information will be available on idm and client (on this case, satellite server)
