Hello, new topic for me: sssd With some reading in the man-Pages and on [docs.fedoraproject.org](http://docs.fedoraproject.org) (!) I’ve managed to use our LDAP-Infrastructure for user-Logins, as we did with nss\_ldap and pam\_ldap in the past. But I can’t manage to use the sudo-rules from LDAP. Each time when I call the sudo-command, it’s complaining about a missing /usr/lib64/libsss\_sudo.so. Which RPM-Package contains this Lib? regards, Detlef ---

Can you raise an SR and post back the SR number and can follow up with my SUSE contacts. – Cheers Malcolm °¿° LFCS, SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 GNOME 3.10.1 Kernel 3.12.28-4-default If you find this post helpful and are logged into the web interface, please show your appreciation and click on the star below… Thanks! ---

SR 10924006281: 3 months ago I opened this SR, nothing heard since then! What can be so difficult to release a patch for package “sssd”? The sssd-package of SLES11-SP3 contains the missing lib (and works!) BTW: Am I the only one who’s missing this lib? Or ist anyone else using the “old fashioned” (but functional !!!) pam\_ldap/nss\_ldap ? ---

Hi All, Same problem for one of my customer. nss mappings including sudo in ldap is a very popular way to centralize informations. We really need a solution for this. It is already hard enough to switch from openldap to sssd (especially to find correct documentation), we really don’t need a missing library … Reminder: SLES12 : version 1.11.5.1 without any libsss\_sudo.so SLES11 : version 1.9.5 complete OpenSuse : version 1.12.2 complete Seems to critical to upgrade the whole sssd stack on a production server … I can also open an SR but i am not sure it will speed up a solution. 3 months wihtout an explanation is not very serious and i start to have problem wht my Suse customers. Cheers ---

Hi fpernet, > 3 months wihtout an explanation I can’t help with that, but from what I’ve heard there’s no need to open a SR. OTOH, maybe you’d receive an explanation that way? 😉 Regards, Jens ---
