Thanks for the clarification, I'll see what we can do > about it. Hi, I think it is a bit different. On RHEL-6 there is no SSSD ipa-server mode since all lookups in AD where still done by winbind. And iirc this unconditional lower-casing was added becasue depending on the type of operation winbind might have returned an all-lowercase name or the original spelling and SSSD at this time got confused and considered those as different users and tried to add them twice. Hence the ad-hoc fix to unconditionally lower-case the names. I'm not sure if current winbind on RHEL-6 still acts in the same way or if a recent version of SSSD on an IPA client would still have an issue if a RHEL-6 IPA server would still return the name of the same user sometimes all lower-case and other times in the original spelling with maybe some upper-case characters. I hope that using a RHEL-8 IPA client with a RHEL-6 IPA server will be as rare as a proton decay, but who knows. bye, Sumit """ See the full comment at https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/pull/5251#issuecomment-685327536
