Resolving Orphaned Objects in Centrify Access Manager

On the Centrify Access Manager, when we search for the userid, the Centrify Access Manager is not found.
But when we add the userid in the system, it mentioned that the userid is duplicated. It seems that the userid has been cached and orphaned somewhere in Centrify.

Step 1: To find out duplicated users / objects, you may use Analyze feature in Access Manager. See Pix 1

Step 2: Analyse Results

You will notice

– Duplicate users in zones
– Orphan zone data objects and invalid data links

Step 3: Right-Clicked to fix the isses

You should be able to add the user.

2. Reproduce the issue, attempt to log-in.

3. Collect adinfo:

# adinfo -t

4. Turn Off Debug

# /usr/share/centrifydc/bin/addebug off

5. Run adquery and dzinfo for the selected Users:

# adquery user -A UserID1 > /tmp/adquery.txt
# dzinfo UserID1 > /tmp/dzinfo.txt

6. Send the Logs to Centrify Support

/var/centrify/tmp/adinfo_support.tar.gz

Testing the AD User Authentication with Centrify

Test 1: Test with SSH

The simplest way is to enable SSH and connect to it.

Test 2: Test with adinfo

# adinfo -A --user user1
Active Directory password:
Password for user "user1" is correct

Test 3: Test using kinit

# /usr/share/centrifydc/kerberos/bin/kinit user1
# /usr/share/centrifydc/kerberos/bin/klist
Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_0
Default principal: user2@test.com
