[Bug 1643244] [NEW] --mkhomedir seems to not work (through oddjob) in 16.04

 

Public bug reported:

I have a FreeIPA server and was setting up a client. I did a standard

    ipa-client-install --mkhomedir

But when I login through ssh, the home folder of the user is not
created.

I see that (in contrast to 14.04 FreeIPA package, so since FreeIPA 4.x
maybe?) oddjob-mkhomedir is used. It seems to be started and systemctl
status oddjobd returns

    Started privileged operations for unprivileged applications.

Cannot find any useful log, I don't know where to start. If you know
where to find more information and logs, I will diagnose it further.
