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 Jenny Severance 2010-05-11 14:04:40 UTC
Description of problem:
The ability to write the kdcinfo file with a default (unreachable) IP address when the KDC can't be reached at startup was recently implemented.

However, the side-effect of this is that the KDC can thereafter not be reached by any application seeking to use it until an SSSD-provided kerberos login is performed.

    We should add an online callback to forcibly invoke be_resolve_server_send() to ensure that this file gets rewritten as soon as we are online.

Comment 6 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2010-07-27 12:16:33 UTC
/var/lib/sss/pubconf/kdcinfo.REALM file gets removed and re-created successfully as soon as SSSD is restarted.

Verified. Version sssd-1.2.1-21.

Comment 7 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 21:39:37 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
