I recently upgraded to Ubuntu (Gnome) 20.10 and ever since I have lots of messages like
SSSD failed to start system security daemon
dependency failed for PAM security socker
... and some more dependency related info...
during boot. As a beginner to Ubuntu I am not well able to judge how serious this problem is. But I don't want red flagged lines during my boot and that makes that I want to eliminate this problem. In journalctl -b
I found some messages pertaining to to SSSD (see below). Especially the first message (in red) is worrysome: it appears that SSSD is not running.
- why is this caused by upgrading to 20.10?
- what can I do? I don't have an sssd.conf file in /etc/sssd but I am not sure why it has been removed or why it isn't present
As the journalctl file is about 8000 lines I only post the lines that signal the start of the sssd problems. If more info is needed please tell me.
