Centos 8 ldap pauthentication roblems

Post by ghooton » 2021/03/23 15:31:56

Hi All,
I wish to setup ldap authentication.
I am using autofs for users home dirs.
I looks like everything is working except the password.
If I do su - <user UID> as root it woks because root will not require a password.
However, as normal use su - <user UID> or ssh <user UID>@myserver fails the password part.
The error message in /var/log/secure is
pam_sss(su-l:session): Request to sssd failed. Connection refused

In /var/log/messages
nslcd[1391]: [a7c4c9] <passwd="johnp"> (re)loading /etc/nsswitch.conf
su[2626]: FAILED SU (to johnp)

I have an Open Ldap [splad] server on the network
