I followed this openldap guide

https://kifarunix.com/install-and-setup-openldap-on-rocky-linux-8/

Got it all working up until I try to id the user on the client (following this guide: https://kifarunix.com/configure-sssd-for-ldap-authentication-on-rocky-linux-8/)

I get a message about "no such user"

The openldap tutorial lists the objectClass for users.ldif

dn: uid=johndoe,ou=people,dc=ldapmaster,dc=kifarunix-demo,dc=com
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: shadowAccount

and I've noticed other sites use

objectClass: account

(see: https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2015/02/openldap-add-users-groups/ & https://forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?t=54808)

I've tried it both ways (and even tried including both)

I can do an ldapsearch from the client to the server and query any of those objectClass's

I'm not sure what I'm missing.

I checked my nsswitch.conf and ensured sss was before files for passwd

I did basic testing and disabled TLS.

My issue was likely in the SSSD.conf and not having the right objectClass as well as matching DN, CN, and OU's
