I joined the ad using the realm join –user=Administrator mydomain.com
however when i query id Administrator, the output is id: ‘administrator@mydomain’: no such user

Please let me know how to troubleshoot/debug the issue.

realm list contents are below:
type: kerberos
realm-name: MYDOMAIN.COM
domain-name: mydomain.com
configured: kerberos-member
server-software: active-directory
client-software: sssd
required-package: oddjob

required-package: sssd
required-package: adcli
required-package: samba-common-tools

In reply to Wai Htut Paing. Hi Wai Htut Paing, looking at your output i can see that the login format is listed as %U which means it isn't looking for the %D (Domain name) so it seems you have already specified the login format or the system did this for you.

can someone tell me, is there a way to provide the password as an argument in the realm join command ? Just like

realm join -U -P example.com

I am trying to automate few areas where this password is actually occurring during the execution time so unable to supply this password as an argument

Hi,
We recently configured our system using the tutorial. However whenever a user logins, we get a message that .bash_profile cannot be created due to permission restriction. Our home directory is located on a lustre file system. Could that be a reason why permission is not given to users? Please advice

Thanks Linuxtechi,

I followed the provided steps and it worked for me.

Now I have a different requirement or question.

1) I want to allow Only IT_TEAM OU. (Another OU should not log in)
2) Only Few users can have access from the allowed OU.

A great post, thank you very much. To add, it would be nice to configure the NTP client. The idea is that the NTP client synchronizes time with the domain controller (DC). Here is an interesting guide to check: ‘https://www.sysadmit.com/2019/11/linux-anadir-equipo-al-dominio-windows.html’

I ran your above commands to join to the domain and I can query ID and realm list. But, I cannot log into the RHEL 7 server via SSH. Did I miss something?
