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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2012:0819 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE ipa bug fix and enhancement update 2012-06-19 20:34:17 UTC

Description Namita Soman 2011-11-02 14:40:59 UTC 
Description of problem:
ipa-client-install --domain=testrelm --realm=TESTRELM -p admin -w <xxx> --no-sssd
installs the client. 

But it should check if nss_ldap package is available or if config files exist and not proceed with the join, if LDAP cannot be configured.

we don't require the nss_ldap package because not using sssd is optional

note: related bug 746276

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-client-2.1.3-8.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. With nss_ldap not installed, run cmd:
ipa-client-install --domain=testrelm --realm=TESTRELM -p admin -w <xxx> --no-sssd

  
Actual results:
client is installed

Expected results:
message to indicate that nss_ldap pkg should be installed to allow --no-sssd option

Verified.

Package nss_ldap or nss-pam-ldap is required when option --no-sssd is used with ipa-client-install.

ipa-client version:
===================

[root@ipa63client1 ~]# rpm -q ipa-client
ipa-client-2.2.0-12.el6.x86_64
[root@ipa63client1 ~]#

ipa-client-install with --no-sssd option and nss_ldap or nss-pam-ldapd not installed:
=========================================================================
[root@ipa63client1 ~]# rpm -q nss-pam-ldapd nss_ldap
package nss-pam-ldapd is not installed
package nss_ldap is not installed
[root@ipa63client1 ~]# 

[root@ipa63client1 ~]# ipa-client-install -p admin -w ******* -U --no-sssd
One of these packages must be installed: nss_ldap or nss-pam-ldapd
Installation failed. Rolling back changes.
IPA client is not configured on this system.
