TROBLESHOOPTING - STEPS
4.1 Verifid the domain name:
Checked network connectivity: Can ping in bot direction Linux server <----> DomainController/DNS server
Check DNS configuration: Confirmed that the DNS settings on the RHEL9 client are correctly
4.2 Review journalctl logs:
sudo journalctl -xeu realmd

Jul 16 08:25:24 rhel9-Server-01.myDomain.local realmd[2939]: released daemon: :1.129
As you can see, the server is added to the domain and I can found the computer object in AD.
But the comand realm list displays nothing
And I cant use domain login to the server.
So something is wrong.
4.3 Checked the sssd.conf that eralier was empty and filled in the right configuraion:
[sssd]
domains = myDomain.local
config_file_version = 2
services = nss, pam
4.4 Restart SSSD service: Restart the SSSD service
