Group names (which contains spaces) when specified in 'AllowGroups' parameter in sshd_config file does not get honoured except the first one.

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • The Linux server is a member of AD. The server is configured to use SSSD for authentication.

  • Using SSH to access the server. The issue is when there is more than one MS Windows group with spaces in the group name in AllowGroups list sshd will work with the first such group in listed (/etc/ssh/sshd_config).

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6
