IPA hbactest(ipa hbactest) fails for user even if appropriate HBAC rule is added in IPA.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • After creating new HBAC rule in IPA it is not getting listed in the rules and thus hbactest fails:
# ipa hbactest --user=ipauser01 --host=host101 --service=sshd | grep -v 'Not matched'
---------------------
Access granted: False
---------------------
  • However, ipa hbactest executed against specific HBAC rule succeeds:
# ipa hbactest --user=ipauser01 --host=host101 --service=sshd --rules=hbac1001| grep -v 'Not matched'
--------------------
Access granted: True
--------------------
  Matched rules: allow_all

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6/7
  • IPA 3.x/4.x
