Hello -- I made the suggested changes to the sssd.conf file, and the results are the same. Just to make sure my syntax is correct: The following section was added to the end of the file: [sssd] debug_level = 4 config_file_version = 2 domains = company/company.org -----Original Message----- From: l at avc.su [mailto:l at avc.su] Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2016 9:08 AM To: Kaplan, Andrew H.; CentOS mailing list Subject: Re: [CentOS] sssd.conf file missing OK, lets dig further. Does your sssd.conf have [sssd] section? Something like [sssd] debug_level = 4 config_file_version = 2 domains = your-domain-name-here If it's not there, add it and modify the [your-domain-name-here] section so it'll look like this: [domain/your-domain-name-here] 23.06.2016, 15:51, "Kaplan, Andrew H." <ahkaplan at partners.org>: > Hello – > > Thank-you for your e-mail.
