Here are the results on my tests of package sssd-1.13.4-1ubuntu1.3 on Xenial.
As I noted in comment #20, this bug report involves two separate issues, both contributing to failure of autofs to properly start on boot: 1. autofs starts before sssd. 2. autofs starts after sssd, but before sssd responders are up. On Trusty I observed both issues, and on Xenial only issue #1 (contrary to my previous comment #20, I did observe this issue in further tests). As I understand, the new version of the package deals with issue #2. Since I never experienced this issue on Xenial, despite numerous tests intended to reproduce it, and the issue #1 remains unfixed, I can only say that changes introduced in sssd-1.13.4-1ubuntu1.3 have no effect in the configuration that I used for my Xenial test system. However, I a weary from changing the tag to verification-failed, as a fix to "what ain't broke" is neither a success nor a failure. This does not mean that the fixes are not valid, and in fact I think they may have positive effect in Trusty. As I understand, the fixed package for Trusty has not yet been released. I did not test the package in Yakkety, as I do not use non-LTS Ubuntu versions. I would be grateful if Yakkety users could test the package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566508 Title: autofs races with sssd on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sssd/+bug/1566508/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
