[Freeipa-users] Solaris 10 problem using netgroups

I've had some similar issues with logins and netgroups on Solaris with 
IPA, I don't recall the details, sorry. We moved to AllowGroups in sshd 
instead.

You don't need sssd to use AllowGroups with sshd. Have a look at the 
sshd_config manpage for how to set it up.



Regards,
Siggi
