      Document link:

      For RHEL 8: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/managing_smart_card_authentication/index

      For RHEL 9: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/managing_smart_card_authentication/index

       

      Section number and name:

      Information is missing from the document

      Describe the issue:

      In the RHEL 7 documentation (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/index#sc-pkinig-test-ad-user)  there is a section for authentication as AD user with a smart card, and the section provides a list of steps to be executed on the IdM client (configuration of /etc/krb5.conf with pkinit_kdc_hostname).

      In RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 docs I could not find this information although it is still relevant.

      Suggestions for improvement:

      Import the information from the chapter https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/index#sc-pkinig-test-ad-user into RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 documentation.

      Additional information:

      A customer opened ticket RHEL-27833 and case 03751272 because the information is missing.
