Symptoms

This issue was reported when following "How to Set up a SSSD on BDA V4.9 and Higher ( Doc ID 2298831.1 )" to configure SSSD on a BDA host. However it may happen to any normal/standalone OL6 host as well. This issue is not specific to BDA hosts.

Basically after configuring Linux host to authenticate against Windows AD server, it might still get failed when logging into the host with AD username, 

Changes

Configured an OL6 host to authenticate against Windows AD server.
