I have a very well working SSO Setup for Ubuntu 14.04. Unfortunately my setup does not work with Ubuntu 16.04 and I have no idea why.
I'm using sssd-ad in combination with ssh for single-sign-on, my problem is, that automatically login is not working - I always get a password prompt and with my password I'm able to login, but that's not the goal of sso...

With this setup I can connect to one of my Ubuntu 14.04 server from one of my domain joined workstations via SSH (GSSAPI)

Any idea why "ignore_acceptor_hostname" is needed in ubuntu 16.04? I don't see a reason why it doesn't work, any idea what the reason could be or how I can get a good error message?
