I think it would make a lot of sense to be able to check a configuration file before restarting sssd, in order to catch incorrectly named configuration options and other problems. sshd -t and visudo -cf are examples of other pieces of authentication related components that offer such a checking feature.
It would also help a lot with configuration management such as puppet or ansible to prevent bad configs from ever reaching production.
I tried turning on full debugging and running sssd -i -c sssd.conf , but that was not helpful.
Thanks for the report. This looks as a duplicate to #2269 - are you ok with closing your version of the issue?
I can't believe I missed that. I tried to find an existing ticket, I promise ;)
Sure, go ahead and close.
