[Samba] Samba SSSD authentication via userPrincipalName does not work because samba claims that the username does not exist.

Dear all,

i'm investigating the issue that I can't authenticate against a Samba
(as Active-Directory Member) using the userPrincipalName (UPN). (Using Samba and
sAMAccountName works fine.)

After some research I'm quite sure that winbind is limited to the
sAMAccountName and can't use UPN. So I deciced to use SSSD and configured
the `ldap_user_name = userPrincipalName` in the sssd.conf

Example:

* sAMAccountName: timfin01
* userPrincipalName: tim.finnigan

"getent passwd tim.finnigan" works, i.e. returns
"tim.finnigan:*:1238402723:1238400513:Tim Finnigan:/home/tim.finnigan at
ad.adtest.de:/bin/bash", so I guess SSSD authentication using UPN should
function.

But Samba refuses to work. I increased the SSSD-Logging and examined, that
authentication with UPN like "smbutil view -A
//tim.finnigan at smb-test" doesn't lead to any entry in the logs. The
SMB-Log instead shows the following:

When authenticating via "smbutil view -A //timfin01 at smb-test" it
works when setting the "ldap_user_name = sAMAccountName" in the
sssd.conf for test purposes. Then, I can also see that SSSD is used for
authentication in the SSSD logs.

I guess Samba has a kind of fallback to NTLM, that isn't supported by SSSD.
And Samba first checks the username existence before using the authentication
backend (SSSD). My smb.conf:

[global]
        workgroup = ADTEST
        security = ads
        encrypt passwords = yes
        client signing = yes
        client use spnego = yes
        kerberos method = system keytab
        #kerberos method = secrets and keytab
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        # password server         realm = ad.adtest.de
        idmap config * : backend = sss
        idmap config * : range = 200000-2147483647
        unix extensions = no
        log level = 4 winbind:5 nmbd:3
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log

[share1]
        vfs objects = fileid
        fielid:algorithm = fsname
        path = /share1
        browseable = yes
        writeable = yes
        guest ok = no
        public = yes
        wide links = yes


Finally, the sssd.conf:

[sssd]
config_file_version = 2
domains = ad.adtest.de
services = nss, pam

[domain/ad.adtest.de]
id_provider = ad
auth_provider = ad
access_provider = ad
ad_domain = ad.adtest.de
krb5_realm = ad.adtest.de
realmd_tags = manages-system joined-with-samba
cache_credentials = True
krb5_store_password_if_offline = True
default_shell = /bin/bash
# ldap_id_mapping = True
use_fully_qualified_names = False
fallback_homedir = /home/%u@%d
ldap_user_name = userPrincipalName
debug_level = 9

I'm using Samba 4.10.4-11.el7_8 on CentOS 8.

I'm not sure if I understand this right, but if so, is there a way to force
Samba to use SSSD? Any hints are very appreciated.

On top of which, you should be able to authentication using a UPN:

pi at raspberrypi:~ $ wbinfo -K SAMDOM\\rowland at samdom.example.com
Enter SAMDOM\rowland at samdom.example.com's password:
plaintext kerberos password authentication for 
[SAMDOM\rowland at samdom.example.com] succeeded (requesting cctype: FILE)
credentials were put in: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_1000

And sssd is *not* your friend if you do anything remotely
sophisticated. It's configuration tools erase any sophisticated setups
in sssd. For any even repotely sophisticated setup, I'll encourage you
to configure Keberos and LDAP more directly.
