SSSD - realmd does not have a service definition

[childofthewired]

When enabling direct AD authentication using realm join, it will fail unless ports are opened. SSSD and realmd will complain and raise errors during this process and tell you which ports are required.

these are also listed here:

I think realmd is a local daemon that uses dbus. So it makes sense that it has no service.

Can you post the errors? Did opening ports work for you? If so what ports?
