#2878 sssd failover does not work on connecting to non-responsive ldaps:// server
Closed: Fixed 5 years ago by jhrozek. Opened 8 years ago by jhrozek.

In case ldaps:// is used, then
establishing the
secure socket is a sychronous operation. If there's nothing on the other
end, then the process would be stuck waiting in for the crypto library
to finish:

On the SSSD side, we can use LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_CONNECT_CB, but there are
still some issues on the libldap side side, the functions would report
TLS is already established.

Since there is a downstream request, this ticket should go to 1.13. But there is a risk it would be popped out since we don't know exactly what is the issue on the OpenLDAP side.

milestone: NEEDS_TRIAGE => SSSD 1.13.3

I still need feedback from the OpenLDAP maintainer on the libldap issue..

We need to discuss whether to defer this ticket

milestone: SSSD 1.13.4 => NEEDS_TRIAGE

Deferring this ticket until libldap is fixed to provide the proper error codes. Please note the same behavior happens also with OpenSSL-backed libldap.

milestone: NEEDS_TRIAGE => SSSD Deferred
