Re: [Freeipa-users] Slow logins on FreeIPA 4.1.2 (F21)

2015-04-05 Thread John Obaterspok
Hi Dan,

I had a problem that login time increased by ~ 15 seconds from F20 - F21.
That was worked around by adding selinux_provider = none to the domain
section in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf

Have you checked that dns lookups + reverse lookups work on the ipa server?
Is id -G the_user_name and is the user_name_name slow or fast?
Did you check https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Troubleshooting +

 I've recently deployed a new domain based on 4.1.2 in F21. We've noticed
 an issue and can't quite seem to nail it down. The problem is that logins
 are taking an inordinate amount of time to complete - the fastest logon we
 can get using LDAP credentials is 8 seconds. During our testing, even
 logons to the IPA server itself took over 30 seconds to complete.

 I've narrowed this down to sssd, but that is as far as I can get. When
 cranking up debugging for sshd and PAM, I see a minimum 2 second delay
 between ssh handing off the authentication request to sssd and the reply
 back. The only troubleshooting I've done is with ssh, but the area that
 causes the most grief is Apache logins. We configured Apache to use PAM for
 auth through IPA, vice directly calling IPA itself. Logging in to our
 Redmine site takes users a minimum of 34 seconds to complete. Following
 this, a simple webpage containing two hyperlinks and two small thumbnail
 images takes over a minute to load on a gigabit network.

 The *only* thing changed in this environment was the IPA server. We moved
 the Redmine from our old network that was using IPA 3.x (F20 branch) to the
 new one. My initial reaction was that it was the VM that was hosting
 Redmine, but we've run these tests against bare metal machines in the same
 network and have the same issue. It appears that sssd is taking a very,
 very long time to talk to FreeIPA - even on the IPA server itself.

 However, Kerberos logins into the IPA web GUI are near instantaneous,
 while Username/Password logins take more than a few seconds.

 I need to get this solved. My developers don't appreciate the glory days
 of XP taking 5 minutes to log into an IIS 2.1 web server on the local
 network. I don't have the budget to keep them at the coffee pot waiting on
 the network. So, what further information do you need from me to track this
 one down?

Hallo

I have a similar issue. On login (graphic systems and ssh) and on the
screen saver I have a delay from about 2 secons to 10 seconds.

According to my logfile i have the following timeline at login:

0   pam_unix (auth)
3   pam_sss (auth)
3   pam_kwallet (sddm:auth)
4   pam_kwallet (sddm:setcred)
5   pam_unix (session)

First collum is the number of seconds after the first action. On myl old
server I had a pure kerberos (handmade) system, which reacted almost
instandly.

Regards
Martin

Several tips.
Please check your DNS configuration.
Such delay is usually caused by the DNS lookups timing out. That means 
that the servers probably trying to resolve names against an old DNS 
server that is not around. Look at resolve.conf and make sure only valid 
DNS servers are there and they are in the proper order.


If this does not help please turn on SSSD debug_level to 10, sanitize 
and send the SSSD domain logs and sssd.conf to the list.

[Freeipa-users] multihome - single interface?

2015-04-05 Thread Janelle

Hello,

Trying to find a way on a multi-homed server to force IPA and its 
related apps to listen on a specific interface. I can find all kinds of 
info saying the services listen on all interfaces by default so there 
must be a way?


Thank you
~J
