#267 sssd_pam segfaults when a nonexistent user attempts login
Closed: Fixed Opened by sgallagh.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

The command 

ssh -l sgallagh@ldap localhost

caused the sssd_pam process to segfault. This is because this user does not exist (and additionally, this domain does not exist)

The root cause is due to a poorly chosen order of conditionals in the offline cache timeout code.
