How to reproduce:
I set cache_credentials = True for IPA domain, made success login by a domain user on a host while it was online. Next, I failed to log in by that user via sddm while the host is offline.
Reason:
PAM_SESSION_ERR for PAM session stack configured as
session required pam_sss.so.

In this case, DC is not configured for desktop profiles (there is no corresponding LDAP schema/entries).
That is why desktop profile config and rules have not been cached on sysdb on successful online logon.
sssd version: 2.5.2, 2.6.0 (older ones were not checked). Linux distro: ALTLinux. domain type: IPA
Offline authentication described in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/deployment_guide/sssd-cache-cred doesn't work for my distro.
How to reproduce: I set
cache_credentials = True
for IPA domain, made success login by a domain user on a host while it was online. Next, I failed to log in by that user via sddm while the host is offline.Reason:
PAM_SESSION_ERR
for PAM session stack configured assession required pam_sss.so

Existent workarounds:
session_provider = none
But both require manual configuration.
