[Freeipa-users] RHEL 5.7 / 5.8 BETA and KDE crashing SSSD

[Sigbjorn Lie]

Hi,

I'm doing a pre-implementation project for a customer having RHEL 5.7 workstations with KDE as
their windows manager.

When using KDE at a RHEL 5.7 (or 5.8 BETA) workstation connected to a IPA 2.1.3 running at RHEL
6.2 server, sssd will crash every time I attempt to unlock the screen.

To work around the issue I switch to tty1, log in as root, and restart sssd. After attempting this
several times (2-5 times), I can finally unlock the screen. I have attempted to update one
workstation to 5.8 beta to see if the issue was resolved there. No such luck.

Is this a known issue?


The log displays the following:
