User Account in Authentication Services on a Linux host shows as disabled with an error similar to the following:
[root@examplehost sudoers.d]# vastool nss getpwnam exampleaccount
exampleaccount:VAS:39991:21120:exampleaccount_test:/home/exampleaccount:/bin/false
To test whether or not the account has been disabled in Active Directory run the following command substituting with the account having issues logging in:
/opt/quest/bin/vastool -u host/ attrs | egrep "userAccountControl:"
The results should be either:
userAccountControl: 66050
or
userAccountControl:66048
66050 means the account is disabled in Active Directory in which case, please ensure the account is enabled in Active Directory and try logging into the Linux host once more once done.
66048 means the account is enabled in Active Directory in which case, please contact One Identity support for additional support.
