Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.   Setup IPA server with longer realm name like ipa1.example.com
2.   Setup AD server with shorter realm domain/realm name like ad.test
3.   Add AD User user
4.   ssh -l user <IPA server>
  
Actual results:
Fails like above


Expected results:
ssh in per norm.

Comment 3 Scott Poore 2012-11-20 16:24:43 UTC
upstream fix seemed to work but, I had to restart sssd/winbind and it seems like I had to lookup the user (with wbinfo) before I could login successfully.  Is that expected behavior?

Sumit, I think you were discussing this issue with Scott on the IRC, is that right? Do you know what might be happening? In any way, I don't think that the problem is related to the too restrictive UPN/realm check, so I would prefer it to be tracked as a separate issue.

Comment 5 Sumit Bose 2012-11-20 20:46:08 UTC
It is completely unrelated from my point of view. Scott, can you reproduce it?

Comment 7 Scott Poore 2012-11-26 16:47:31 UTC
No I was unable to reproduce this when I tried previously.  If that behavior occurs again, we'll just open a separate bug and troubleshoot it that way.

Thanks
