Hi Magnus,

Yes, the system username is "user1", per the default ipa-client-install SSSD setup, and the map is
working for that. Without the map, I have to specify the full Kerberos username, user(at)DOMAIN(dot)TLD, in
the psql command.

Works with map:

$ psql -h db0 #Implied -U user1 -d user1
$ psql -h db0 -U user1 -d user1

Does not work with map:

$ psql -h db0 -U user1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD -d user1

Works without map (provided I have a role created):

$ psql -h db0 -U user1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD -d user1

Does not work without map:

$ psql -h db0 #Implied -U user1 -d user1
$ psql -h db0 -U user1 -d user1

I can get one style or the other to work, but I just can't get both to work a the same time.

If this is something that can't be done, I understand, but it looks like it should be possible per
the documentation.

Thanks,
Ryan
