NAME

       sssd-ldap - SSSD LDAP provider

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page describes the configuration of LDAP domains for sssd(8). Refer to the
       “FILE FORMAT” section of the sssd.conf(5) manual page for detailed syntax information.

       You can configure SSSD to use more than one LDAP domain.

       LDAP back end supports id, auth, access and chpass providers. If you want to authenticate
       against an LDAP server either TLS/SSL or LDAPS is required.  sssd does not support
       authentication over an unencrypted channel. If the LDAP server is used only as an identity
       provider, an encrypted channel is not needed. Please refer to “ldap_access_filter” config
       option for more information about using LDAP as an access provider.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       All of the common configuration options that apply to SSSD domains also apply to LDAP
       domains. Refer to the “DOMAIN SECTIONS” section of the sssd.conf(5) manual page for full
       details.

       ldap_uri, ldap_backup_uri (string)
           Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to which SSSD should
           connect in the order of preference. Refer to the “FAILOVER” section for more
           information on failover and server redundancy. If neither option is specified, service
           discovery is enabled. For more information, refer to the “SERVICE DISCOVERY” section.

           The format of the URI must match the format defined in RFC 2732:

           ldap[s]://<host>[:port]

           For explicit IPv6 addresses, <host> must be enclosed in brackets []

           example: ldap://[fc00::126:25]:389

       ldap_chpass_uri, ldap_chpass_backup_uri (string)
           Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to which SSSD should
           connect in the order of preference to change the password of a user. Refer to the
           “FAILOVER” section for more information on failover and server redundancy.

           To enable service discovery ldap_chpass_dns_service_name must be set.

           Default: empty, i.e. ldap_uri is used.

       ldap_search_base (string)
           The default base DN to use for performing LDAP user operations.

           Starting with SSSD 1.7.0, SSSD supports multiple search bases using the syntax:

           search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]

           The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree".

           The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
           http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt

           Examples:

           ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com (which is equivalent to) ldap_search_base =
           dc=example,dc=com?subtree?

           ldap_search_base =
           cn=host_specific,dc=example,dc=com?subtree?(host=thishost)?dc=example.com?subtree?

           Note: It is unsupported to have multiple search bases which reference
           identically-named objects (for example, groups with the same name in two different
           search bases). This will lead to unpredictable behavior on client machines.

           Default: If not set, the value of the defaultNamingContext or namingContexts attribute
           from the RootDSE of the LDAP server is used. If defaultNamingContext does not exist or
           has an empty value namingContexts is used. The namingContexts attribute must have a
           single value with the DN of the search base of the LDAP server to make this work.
           Multiple values are are not supported.

       ldap_schema (string)
           Specifies the Schema Type in use on the target LDAP server. Depending on the selected
           schema, the default attribute names retrieved from the servers may vary. The way that
           some attributes are handled may also differ.

           Four schema types are currently supported:

           •   rfc2307

           •   rfc2307bis

           •   IPA

           •   AD

           The main difference between these schema types is how group memberships are recorded
           in the server. With rfc2307, group members are listed by name in the memberUid
           attribute. With rfc2307bis and IPA, group members are listed by DN and stored in the
           member attribute. The AD schema type sets the attributes to correspond with Active
           Directory 2008r2 values.

           Default: rfc2307

       ldap_default_bind_dn (string)
           The default bind DN to use for performing LDAP operations.

       ldap_default_authtok_type (string)
           The type of the authentication token of the default bind DN.

           The two mechanisms currently supported are:

           password

           obfuscated_password

           Default: password

       ldap_default_authtok (string)
           The authentication token of the default bind DN. Only clear text passwords are
           currently supported.

       ldap_user_object_class (string)
           The object class of a user entry in LDAP.

           Default: posixAccount

       ldap_user_name (string)

           should only be set manually if you are running the “ldap” provider with ID mapping.

           Default: unset (LDAP), primaryGroupID (AD)

       ldap_user_gecos (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the user's gecos field.

           attribute storing the user account control bit field.

           Default: userAccountControl

       ldap_ns_account_lock (string)
           When using ldap_account_expire_policy=rhds or equivalent, this parameter determines if
           access is allowed or not.

           Default: nsAccountLock

       ldap_user_nds_login_disabled (string)
           When using ldap_account_expire_policy=nds, this attribute determines if access is
           allowed or not.

           Default: loginDisabled

       ldap_user_nds_login_expiration_time (string)
           When using ldap_account_expire_policy=nds, this attribute determines until which date

           Default: loginAllowedTimeMap

       ldap_user_principal (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the user's Kerberos User Principal Name (UPN).

           Default: krbPrincipalName

       ldap_user_extra_attrs (string)
           Comma-separated list of LDAP attributes that SSSD would fetch along with the usual set
           of user attributes.

           The list can either contain LDAP attribute names only, or colon-separated tuples of
           SSSD cache attribute name and LDAP attribute name. In case only LDAP attribute name is
           specified, the attribute is saved to the cache verbatim. Using a custom SSSD attribute
           name might be required by environments that configure several SSSD domains with
           different LDAP schemas.

           Please note that several attribute names are reserved by SSSD, notably the “name”
           attribute. SSSD would report an error if any of the reserved attribute names is used
           as an extra attribute name.

           Examples:

           ldap_user_extra_attrs = telephoneNumber

           Save the “telephoneNumber” attribute from LDAP as “telephoneNumber” to the cache.

           ldap_user_extra_attrs = phone:telephoneNumber

           Save the “telephoneNumber” attribute from LDAP as “phone” to the cache.

           Default: not set

       ldap_user_ssh_public_key (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the user's SSH public keys.

           Default: sshPublicKey

       ldap_force_upper_case_realm (boolean)
           Some directory servers, for example Active Directory, might deliver the realm part of
           the UPN in lower case, which might cause the authentication to fail. Set this option
           to a non-zero value if you want to use an upper-case realm.

           Default: false

       ldap_enumeration_refresh_timeout (integer)
           Specifies how many seconds SSSD has to wait before refreshing its cache of enumerated
           records.

           Default: 300

       ldap_purge_cache_timeout (integer)
           Determine how often to check the cache for inactive entries (such as groups with no
           members and users who have never logged in) and remove them to save space.

           Setting this option to zero will disable the cache cleanup operation. Please note that
           if enumeration is enabled, the cleanup task is required in order to detect entries
           removed from the server and can't be disabled. By default, the cleanup task will run
           every 3 hours with enumeration enabled.

           Default: 0 (disabled)

       ldap_user_fullname (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the user's full name.

           Default: cn

       ldap_user_member_of (string)
           The LDAP attribute that lists the user's group memberships.

           Default: memberOf

       ldap_user_authorized_service (string)
           If access_provider=ldap and ldap_access_order=authorized_service, SSSD will use the
           presence of the authorizedService attribute in the user's LDAP entry to determine
           access privilege.

           An explicit deny (!svc) is resolved first. Second, SSSD searches for explicit allow
           (svc) and finally for allow_all (*).

           Please note that the ldap_access_order configuration option must include
           “authorized_service” in order for the ldap_user_authorized_service option to work.

           Default: authorizedService

       ldap_user_authorized_host (string)
           If access_provider=ldap and ldap_access_order=host, SSSD will use the presence of the
           host attribute in the user's LDAP entry to determine access privilege.

           An explicit deny (!host) is resolved first. Second, SSSD searches for explicit allow
           (host) and finally for allow_all (*).

           Please note that the ldap_access_order configuration option must include “host” in
           order for the ldap_user_authorized_host option to work.

           Default: host

       ldap_user_authorized_rhost (string)
           If access_provider=ldap and ldap_access_order=rhost, SSSD will use the presence of the
           rhost attribute in the user's LDAP entry to determine access privilege. Similarly to
           host verification process.

           An explicit deny (!rhost) is resolved first. Second, SSSD searches for explicit allow
           (rhost) and finally for allow_all (*).

           Please note that the ldap_access_order configuration option must include “rhost” in
           order for the ldap_user_authorized_rhost option to work.

           Default: rhost

       ldap_user_certificate (string)
           Name of the LDAP attribute containing the X509 certificate of the user.

           Default: userCertificate;binary

       ldap_user_email (string)
           Name of the LDAP attribute containing the email address of the user.

           Note: If an email address of a user conflicts with an email address or fully qualified
           name of another user, then SSSD will not be able to serve those users properly. If for
           some reason several users need to share the same email address then set this option to
           a nonexistent attribute name in order to disable user lookup/login by email.

           Default: mail

       ldap_group_object_class (string)
           The object class of a group entry in LDAP.

           Default: posixGroup

       ldap_group_name (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the group name.

           Default: cn (rfc2307, rfc2307bis and IPA), sAMAccountName (AD)

       ldap_group_gid_number (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the group's id.

           Default: gidNumber

       ldap_group_member (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the names of the group's members.

           Default: memberuid (rfc2307) / member (rfc2307bis)

       ldap_group_uuid (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the UUID/GUID of an LDAP group object.

           Default: not set in the general case, objectGUID for AD and ipaUniqueID for IPA

       ldap_group_objectsid (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the objectSID of an LDAP group object. This is
           usually only necessary for ActiveDirectory servers.

           Default: objectSid for ActiveDirectory, not set for other servers.

       ldap_group_modify_timestamp (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains timestamp of the last modification of the parent
           object.

           Default: modifyTimestamp

       ldap_group_type (integer)
           The LDAP attribute that contains an integer value indicating the type of the group and
           maybe other flags.

           This attribute is currently only used by the AD provider to determine if a group is a
           domain local groups and has to be filtered out for trusted domains.

           Default: groupType in the AD provider, otherwise not set

       ldap_group_external_member (string)
           The LDAP attribute that references group members that are defined in an external
           domain. At the moment, only IPA's external members are supported.

           Default: ipaExternalMember in the IPA provider, otherwise unset.

       ldap_group_nesting_level (integer)
           If ldap_schema is set to a schema format that supports nested groups (e.g.
           RFC2307bis), then this option controls how many levels of nesting SSSD will follow.
           This option has no effect on the RFC2307 schema.

           Note: This option specifies the guaranteed level of nested groups to be processed for
           any lookup. However, nested groups beyond this limit may be returned if previous
           lookups already resolved the deeper nesting levels. Also, subsequent lookups for other
           groups may enlarge the result set for original lookup if re-queried.

           If ldap_group_nesting_level is set to 0 then no nested groups are processed at all.
           However, when connected to Active-Directory Server 2008 and later using
           “id_provider=ad” it is furthermore required to disable usage of Token-Groups by
           setting ldap_use_tokengroups to false in order to restrict group nesting.

           Default: 2

       ldap_groups_use_matching_rule_in_chain
           This option tells SSSD to take advantage of an Active Directory-specific feature which
           may speed up group lookup operations on deployments with complex or deep nested
           groups.

           In most common cases, it is best to leave this option disabled. It generally only
           provides a performance increase on very complex nestings.

           If this option is enabled, SSSD will use it if it detects that the server supports it
           during initial connection. So "True" here essentially means "auto-detect".

           Note: This feature is currently known to work only with Active Directory 2008 R1 and
           later. See MSDN(TM) documentation[1] for more details.

           Default: False

       ldap_initgroups_use_matching_rule_in_chain
           This option tells SSSD to take advantage of an Active Directory-specific feature which
           might speed up initgroups operations (most notably when dealing with complex or deep
           nested groups).

           If this option is enabled, SSSD will use it if it detects that the server supports it
           during initial connection. So "True" here essentially means "auto-detect".

           Note: This feature is currently known to work only with Active Directory 2008 R1 and
           later. See MSDN(TM) documentation[1] for more details.

           Default: False

       ldap_use_tokengroups
           This options enables or disables use of Token-Groups attribute when performing
           initgroup for users from Active Directory Server 2008 and later.

           Default: True for AD and IPA otherwise False.

       ldap_netgroup_object_class (string)
           The object class of a netgroup entry in LDAP.

           In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_object_class should be used instead.

           Default: nisNetgroup

       ldap_netgroup_name (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the netgroup name.

           In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_name should be used instead.

           Default: cn

       ldap_netgroup_member (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the names of the netgroup's members.

           In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_member should be used instead.

           The LDAP attribute that lists the host's group memberships.

           Default: memberOf

       ldap_host_search_base (string)
           Optional. Use the given string as search base for host objects.

           See “ldap_search_base” for information about configuring multiple search bases.

           Default: the value of ldap_search_base

       ldap_host_ssh_public_key (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the host's SSH public keys.

           Default: sshPublicKey

       ldap_host_uuid (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the UUID/GUID of an LDAP host object.

           Default: not set

       ldap_service_object_class (string)
           The object class of a service entry in LDAP.

           Default: ipService

       ldap_service_name (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the name of service attributes and their aliases.

           Default: cn

       ldap_service_port (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the port managed by this service.

           Default: ipServicePort

       ldap_service_proto (string)
           The LDAP attribute that contains the protocols understood by this service.

           Default: ipServiceProtocol

       ldap_service_search_base (string)
           An optional base DN, search scope and LDAP filter to restrict LDAP searches for this
           attribute type.

           syntax:

               search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]

           The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The scope functions as
           specified in section 4.5.1.2 of http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511

           The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
           http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt

           For examples of this syntax, please refer to the “ldap_search_base” examples section.

           Default: the value of ldap_search_base

           Please note that specifying scope or filter is not supported for searches against an
           Active Directory Server that might yield a large number of results and trigger the
           Range Retrieval extension in the response.

       ldap_search_timeout (integer)
           Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches are allowed to run before they
           are cancelled and cached results are returned (and offline mode is entered)

           Note: this option is subject to change in future versions of the SSSD. It will likely
           be replaced at some point by a series of timeouts for specific lookup types.

           Default: 6

       ldap_enumeration_search_timeout (integer)
           Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches for user and group enumerations
           are allowed to run before they are cancelled and cached results are returned (and
           offline mode is entered)

           Default: 60

       ldap_network_timeout (integer)
           Specifies the timeout (in seconds) after which the poll(2)/select(2) following a
           connect(2) returns in case of no activity.

           Default: 6

       ldap_opt_timeout (integer)
           Specifies a timeout (in seconds) after which calls to synchronous LDAP APIs will abort
           if no response is received. Also controls the timeout when communicating with the KDC
           in case of SASL bind, the timeout of an LDAP bind operation, password change extended
           operation and the StartTLS operation.

           Default: 6

       ldap_connection_expire_timeout (integer)
           Specifies a timeout (in seconds) that a connection to an LDAP server will be
           maintained. After this time, the connection will be re-established. If used in
           parallel with SASL/GSSAPI, the sooner of the two values (this value vs. the TGT
           lifetime) will be used.

           Default: 900 (15 minutes)

       ldap_page_size (integer)
           Specify the number of records to retrieve from LDAP in a single request. Some LDAP
           servers enforce a maximum limit per-request.

           Default: 1000

       ldap_disable_paging (boolean)
           Disable the LDAP paging control. This option should be used if the LDAP server reports
           that it supports the LDAP paging control in its RootDSE but it is not enabled or does
           not behave properly.

           Example: OpenLDAP servers with the paging control module installed on the server but
           not enabled will report it in the RootDSE but be unable to use it.

           Example: 389 DS has a bug where it can only support a one paging control at a time on
           a single connection. On busy clients, this can result in some requests being denied.

           Default: False

       ldap_disable_range_retrieval (boolean)
           Disable Active Directory range retrieval.

           Active Directory limits the number of members to be retrieved in a single lookup using
           the MaxValRange policy (which defaults to 1500 members). If a group contains more
           members, the reply would include an AD-specific range extension. This option disables
           parsing of the range extension, therefore large groups will appear as having no
           members.

           Default: False

       ldap_sasl_minssf (integer)
           When communicating with an LDAP server using SASL, specify the minimum security level
           necessary to establish the connection. The values of this option are defined by
           OpenLDAP.

           Default: Use the system default (usually specified by ldap.conf)

       ldap_sasl_maxssf (integer)
           When communicating with an LDAP server using SASL, specify the maximal security level
           necessary to establish the connection. The values of this option are defined by
           OpenLDAP.

           Default: Use the system default (usually specified by ldap.conf)

       ldap_deref_threshold (integer)
           Specify the number of group members that must be missing from the internal cache in
           order to trigger a dereference lookup. If less members are missing, they are looked up
           individually.

           You can turn off dereference lookups completely by setting the value to 0.

           A dereference lookup is a means of fetching all group members in a single LDAP call.
           Different LDAP servers may implement different dereference methods. The currently
           supported servers are 389/RHDS, OpenLDAP and Active Directory.

           Note: If any of the search bases specifies a search filter, then the dereference
           lookup performance enhancement will be disabled regardless of this setting.

           Default: 10

       ldap_tls_reqcert (string)
           Specifies what checks to perform on server certificates in a TLS session, if any. It
           can be specified as one of the following values:

           never = The client will not request or check any server certificate.

           allow = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, the
           session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided, it will be ignored and
           the session proceeds normally.

           try = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, the session
           proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided, the session is immediately
           terminated.

           demand = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, or a bad
           certificate is provided, the session is immediately terminated.

           hard = Same as “demand”

           Default: hard

       ldap_tls_cacert (string)
           Specifies the file that contains certificates for all of the Certificate Authorities
           that sssd will recognize.

           Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf

       ldap_tls_cacertdir (string)
           Specifies the path of a directory that contains Certificate Authority certificates in
           separate individual files. Typically the file names need to be the hash of the
           certificate followed by '.0'. If available, cacertdir_rehash can be used to create the
           correct names.

           Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf

       ldap_tls_cert (string)
           Specifies the file that contains the certificate for the client's key.

           Default: not set

       ldap_tls_key (string)
           Specifies the file that contains the client's key.

           Default: not set

       ldap_tls_cipher_suite (string)
           Specifies acceptable cipher suites. Typically this is a colon separated list. See
           ldap.conf(5) for format.

           Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf

       ldap_id_use_start_tls (boolean)
           Specifies that the id_provider connection must also use tls to protect the channel.

           Default: false

       ldap_id_mapping (boolean)
           Specifies that SSSD should attempt to map user and group IDs from the
           ldap_user_objectsid and ldap_group_objectsid attributes instead of relying on
           ldap_user_uid_number and ldap_group_gid_number.

           Currently this feature supports only ActiveDirectory objectSID mapping.

           Default: false

       ldap_min_id, ldap_max_id (integer)
           In contrast to the SID based ID mapping which is used if ldap_id_mapping is set to
           true the allowed ID range for ldap_user_uid_number and ldap_group_gid_number is
           unbound. In a setup with sub/trusted-domains this might lead to ID collisions. To
           avoid collisions ldap_min_id and ldap_max_id can be set to restrict the allowed range
           for the IDs which are read directly from the server. Sub-domains can then pick other
           ranges to map IDs.

           If the backend supports sub-domains the value of ldap_sasl_mech is automatically
           inherited to the sub-domains. If a different value is needed for a sub-domain it can
           be overwritten by setting ldap_sasl_mech for this sub-domain explicitly. Please see
           TRUSTED DOMAIN SECTION in sssd.conf(5) for details.

           Default: not set (both options are set to 0)

       ldap_sasl_mech (string)
           Specify the SASL mechanism to use. Currently only GSSAPI is tested and supported.

           Default: not set

       ldap_sasl_authid (string)
           Specify the SASL authorization id to use. When GSSAPI is used, this represents the
           Kerberos principal used for authentication to the directory. This option can either
           contain the full principal (for example host/myhost@EXAMPLE.COM) or just the principal
           name (for example host/myhost).

           Default: host/hostname@REALM

       ldap_sasl_realm (string)
           Specify the SASL realm to use. When not specified, this option defaults to the value
           of krb5_realm. If the ldap_sasl_authid contains the realm as well, this option is
           ignored.

           Default: the value of krb5_realm.

       ldap_sasl_canonicalize (boolean)
           If set to true, the LDAP library would perform a reverse lookup to canonicalize the
           host name during a SASL bind.

           Default: false;

       ldap_krb5_keytab (string)
           Specify the keytab to use when using SASL/GSSAPI.

           Default: System keytab, normally /etc/krb5.keytab

       ldap_krb5_init_creds (boolean)
           Specifies that the id_provider should init Kerberos credentials (TGT). This action is
           performed only if SASL is used and the mechanism selected is GSSAPI.

           Default: true

       ldap_krb5_ticket_lifetime (integer)
           Specifies the lifetime in seconds of the TGT if GSSAPI is used.

           Default: 86400 (24 hours)

       krb5_server, krb5_backup_server (string)
           Specifies the comma-separated list of IP addresses or hostnames of the Kerberos
           servers to which SSSD should connect in the order of preference. For more information
           on failover and server redundancy, see the “FAILOVER” section. An optional port number
           (preceded by a colon) may be appended to the addresses or hostnames. If empty, service
           discovery is enabled - for more information, refer to the “SERVICE DISCOVERY” section.

           When using service discovery for KDC or kpasswd servers, SSSD first searches for DNS
           entries that specify _udp as the protocol and falls back to _tcp if none are found.

           This option was named “krb5_kdcip” in earlier releases of SSSD. While the legacy name
           is recognized for the time being, users are advised to migrate their config files to
           use “krb5_server” instead.

       krb5_realm (string)
           Specify the Kerberos REALM (for SASL/GSSAPI auth).

           Default: System defaults, see /etc/krb5.conf

       krb5_canonicalize (boolean)
           Specifies if the host principal should be canonicalized when connecting to LDAP
           server. This feature is available with MIT Kerberos >= 1.7

           Default: false

       krb5_use_kdcinfo (boolean)
           Specifies if the SSSD should instruct the Kerberos libraries what realm and which KDCs
           to use. This option is on by default, if you disable it, you need to configure the
           Kerberos library using the krb5.conf(5) configuration file.

           See the sssd_krb5_locator_plugin(8) manual page for more information on the locator
           plugin.

           Default: true

       ldap_pwd_policy (string)
           Select the policy to evaluate the password expiration on the client side. The
           following values are allowed:

           none - No evaluation on the client side. This option cannot disable server-side
           password policies.

           shadow - Use shadow(5) style attributes to evaluate if the password has expired.

           mit_kerberos - Use the attributes used by MIT Kerberos to determine if the password
           has expired. Use chpass_provider=krb5 to update these attributes when the password is
           changed.

           Default: none

           Note: if a password policy is configured on server side, it always takes precedence
           over policy set with this option.

       ldap_referrals (boolean)
           Specifies whether automatic referral chasing should be enabled.

           Please note that sssd only supports referral chasing when it is compiled with OpenLDAP
           version 2.4.13 or higher.

           Chasing referrals may incur a performance penalty in environments that use them
           heavily, a notable example is Microsoft Active Directory. If your setup does not in
           fact require the use of referrals, setting this option to false might bring a
           noticeable performance improvement.

           Default: true

       ldap_dns_service_name (string)
           Specifies the service name to use when service discovery is enabled.

           Default: ldap

       ldap_chpass_dns_service_name (string)
           Specifies the service name to use to find an LDAP server which allows password changes
           when service discovery is enabled.

           Default: not set, i.e. service discovery is disabled

       ldap_chpass_update_last_change (bool)
           Specifies whether to update the ldap_user_shadow_last_change attribute with days since
           the Epoch after a password change operation.

           Default: False

       ldap_access_filter (string)
           If using access_provider = ldap and ldap_access_order = filter (default), this option
           is mandatory. It specifies an LDAP search filter criteria that must be met for the
           user to be granted access on this host. If access_provider = ldap, ldap_access_order =
           filter and this option is not set, it will result in all users being denied access.
           Use access_provider = permit to change this default behavior. Please note that this
           filter is applied on the LDAP user entry only and thus filtering based on nested
           groups may not work (e.g. memberOf attribute on AD entries points only to direct
           parents). If filtering based on nested groups is required, please see sssd-simple(5).

           Example:

               access_provider = ldap
               ldap_access_filter = (employeeType=admin)

           This example means that access to this host is restricted to users whose employeeType
           attribute is set to "admin".

           Offline caching for this feature is limited to determining whether the user's last
           online login was granted access permission. If they were granted access during their
           last login, they will continue to be granted access while offline and vice versa.

           Default: Empty

       ldap_account_expire_policy (string)
           With this option a client side evaluation of access control attributes can be enabled.

           Please note that it is always recommended to use server side access control, i.e. the
           LDAP server should deny the bind request with a suitable error code even if the
           password is correct.

           The following values are allowed:

           shadow: use the value of ldap_user_shadow_expire to determine if the account is
           expired.

           ad: use the value of the 32bit field ldap_user_ad_user_account_control and allow
           access if the second bit is not set. If the attribute is missing access is granted.
           Also the expiration time of the account is checked.

           rhds, ipa, 389ds: use the value of ldap_ns_account_lock to check if access is allowed
           or not.

           nds: the values of ldap_user_nds_login_allowed_time_map, ldap_user_nds_login_disabled
           and ldap_user_nds_login_expiration_time are used to check if access is allowed. If
           both attributes are missing access is granted.
            This is an experimental feature, please use https://pagure.io/SSSD/sssd/ to report
           any issues.

           Please note that the ldap_access_order configuration option must include “expire” in
           order for the ldap_account_expire_policy option to work.

           Default: Empty

       ldap_access_order (string)
           Comma separated list of access control options. Allowed values are:

           filter: use ldap_access_filter

           lockout: use account locking. If set, this option denies access in case that ldap
           attribute 'pwdAccountLockedTime' is present and has value of '000001010000Z'. Please
           see the option ldap_pwdlockout_dn. Please note that 'access_provider = ldap' must be
           set for this feature to work.

            Please note that this option is superseded by the “ppolicy” option and might be
           removed in a future release.

           ppolicy: use account locking. If set, this option denies access in case that ldap
           attribute 'pwdAccountLockedTime' is present and has value of '000001010000Z' or
           represents any time in the past. The value of the 'pwdAccountLockedTime' attribute
           must end with 'Z', which denotes the UTC time zone. Other time zones are not currently
           supported and will result in "access-denied" when users attempt to log in. Please see
           the option ldap_pwdlockout_dn. Please note that 'access_provider = ldap' must be set
           for this feature to work.

           expire: use ldap_account_expire_policy

           pwd_expire_policy_reject, pwd_expire_policy_warn, pwd_expire_policy_renew: These
           options are useful if users are interested in being warned that password is about to
           expire and authentication is based on using a different method than passwords - for
           example SSH keys.

           The difference between these options is the action taken if user password is expired:
           pwd_expire_policy_reject - user is denied to log in, pwd_expire_policy_warn - user is
           still able to log in, pwd_expire_policy_renew - user is prompted to change his
           password immediately.

           Note If user password is expired no explicit message is prompted by SSSD.

           Please note that 'access_provider = ldap' must be set for this feature to work. Also
           'ldap_pwd_policy' must be set to an appropriate password policy.

           authorized_service: use the authorizedService attribute to determine access

           host: use the host attribute to determine access

           rhost: use the rhost attribute to determine whether remote host can access

           Please note, rhost field in pam is set by application, it is better to check what the
           application sends to pam, before enabling this access control option

           Default: filter

           Please note that it is a configuration error if a value is used more than once.

       ldap_pwdlockout_dn (string)
           This option specifies the DN of password policy entry on LDAP server. Please note that
           absence of this option in sssd.conf in case of enabled account lockout checking will
           yield access denied as ppolicy attributes on LDAP server cannot be checked properly.

           Example: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com

           Default: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,$ldap_search_base

       ldap_deref (string)
           Specifies how alias dereferencing is done when performing a search. The following
           options are allowed:

           never: Aliases are never dereferenced.

           searching: Aliases are dereferenced in subordinates of the base object, but not in
           locating the base object of the search.

           finding: Aliases are only dereferenced when locating the base object of the search.

           always: Aliases are dereferenced both in searching and in locating the base object of
           the search.

           Default: Empty (this is handled as never by the LDAP client libraries)

       ldap_rfc2307_fallback_to_local_users (boolean)
           Allows to retain local users as members of an LDAP group for servers that use the
           RFC2307 schema.

           In some environments where the RFC2307 schema is used, local users are made members of
           LDAP groups by adding their names to the memberUid attribute. The self-consistency of
           the domain is compromised when this is done, so SSSD would normally remove the
           "missing" users from the cached group memberships as soon as nsswitch tries to fetch
           information about the user via getpw*() or initgroups() calls.

           This option falls back to checking if local users are referenced, and caches them so
           that later initgroups() calls will augment the local users with the additional LDAP
           groups.

           Default: false

       wildcard_limit (integer)
           Specifies an upper limit on the number of entries that are downloaded during a
           wildcard lookup.

           At the moment, only the InfoPipe responder supports wildcard lookups.

           Default: 1000 (often the size of one page)

SUDO OPTIONS

       The detailed instructions for configuration of sudo_provider are in the manual page sssd-
       sudo(5).

       ldap_sudorule_object_class (string)
           The object class of a sudo rule entry in LDAP.

           Default: sudoRole

       ldap_sudorule_name (string)

           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the sudo options.

           Default: sudoOption

       ldap_sudorule_runasuser (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the user name that commands may be run as.

           Default: sudoRunAsUser

       ldap_sudorule_runasgroup (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the group name or group GID that commands may
           be run as.

           Default: sudoRunAsGroup

       ldap_sudorule_notbefore (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the start date/time for when the sudo rule is
           valid.

           Default: sudoNotBefore

       ldap_sudorule_notafter (string)
           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the expiration date/time, after which the sudo
           rule will no longer be valid.

           The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the ordering index of the rule.

           Default: sudoOrder

       ldap_sudo_full_refresh_interval (integer)
           How many seconds SSSD will wait between executing a full refresh of sudo rules (which
           downloads all rules that are stored on the server).

           The value must be greater than ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval

           Default: 21600 (6 hours)

       ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval (integer)
           How many seconds SSSD has to wait before executing a smart refresh of sudo rules
           (which downloads all rules that have USN higher than the highest USN of cached rules).

           If USN attributes are not supported by the server, the modifyTimestamp attribute is
           used instead.

           Default: 900 (15 minutes)

       ldap_sudo_use_host_filter (boolean)
           If true, SSSD will download only rules that are applicable to this machine (using the
           IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses and hostnames).

           Default: true

       ldap_sudo_hostnames (string)
           Space separated list of hostnames or fully qualified domain names that should be used
           to filter the rules.

           If this option is empty, SSSD will try to discover the hostname and the fully
           qualified domain name automatically.

           If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect.

           Default: not specified

       ldap_sudo_ip (string)
           Space separated list of IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses that should be used to
           filter the rules.

           If this option is empty, SSSD will try to discover the addresses automatically.

           If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect.

           Default: not specified

       ldap_sudo_include_netgroups (boolean)
           If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a netgroup in sudoHost
           attribute.

           If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect.

           Default: true

       ldap_sudo_include_regexp (boolean)
           If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a wildcard in sudoHost
           attribute.

           If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect.

           Default: true

       This manual page only describes attribute name mapping. For detailed explanation of sudo
       related attribute semantics, see sudoers.ldap(5)

AUTOFS OPTIONS

       Some of the defaults for the parameters below are dependent on the LDAP schema.

       ldap_autofs_map_master_name (string)
           The name of the automount master map in LDAP.

           Default: auto.master

       ldap_autofs_map_object_class (string)
           The object class of an automount map entry in LDAP.

           Default: nisMap (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automountMap

       ldap_autofs_map_name (string)
           The name of an automount map entry in LDAP.

           Default: nisMapName (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automountMapName

       ldap_autofs_entry_object_class (string)
           The object class of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually corresponds to a
           mount point.

           Default: nisObject (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automount

       ldap_autofs_entry_key (string)
           The key of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually corresponds to a mount point.

           Default: cn (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automountKey

       ldap_autofs_entry_value (string)
           The key of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually corresponds to a mount point.

           Default: nisMapEntry (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automountInformation

       Please note that the automounter only reads the master map on startup, so if any
       autofs-related changes are made to the sssd.conf, you typically also need to restart the
       automounter daemon after restarting the SSSD.

ADVANCED OPTIONS

       These options are supported by LDAP domains, but they should be used with caution. Please
       include them in your configuration only if you know what you are doing.

           An optional base DN, search scope and LDAP filter to restrict LDAP searches for this
           attribute type.

           syntax:

               search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]

           The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The scope functions as
           specified in section 4.5.1.2 of http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511

           The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
           http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt

           For examples of this syntax, please refer to the “ldap_search_base” examples section.

           Default: the value of ldap_search_base

           Please note that specifying scope or filter is not supported for searches against an

           Note
           If the option “ldap_use_tokengroups” is enabled, the searches against Active Directory
           will not be restricted and return all groups memberships, even with no GID mapping. It
           is recommended to disable this feature, if group names are not being displayed
           correctly.

FAILOVER

       The failover feature allows back ends to automatically switch to a different server if the
       current server fails.

   Failover Syntax
       The list of servers is given as a comma-separated list; any number of spaces is allowed
       around the comma. The servers are listed in order of preference. The list can contain any
       number of servers.

       For each failover-enabled config option, two variants exist: primary and backup. The idea
       is that servers in the primary list are preferred and backup servers are only searched if
       no primary servers can be reached. If a backup server is selected, a timeout of 31 seconds
       is set. After this timeout SSSD will periodically try to reconnect to one of the primary
       servers. If it succeeds, it will replace the current active (backup) server.

   The Failover Mechanism
       The failover mechanism distinguishes between a machine and a service. The back end first
       tries to resolve the hostname of a given machine; if this resolution attempt fails, the
       machine is considered offline. No further attempts are made to connect to this machine for
       any other service. If the resolution attempt succeeds, the back end tries to connect to a
       service on this machine. If the service connection attempt fails, then only this
       particular service is considered offline and the back end automatically switches over to
       the next service. The machine is still considered online and might still be tried for
       another service.

       Further connection attempts are made to machines or services marked as offline after a
       specified period of time; this is currently hard coded to 30 seconds.

       If there are no more machines to try, the back end as a whole switches to offline mode,
       and then attempts to reconnect every 30 seconds.

   Failover time outs and tuning
       Resolving a server to connect to can be as simple as running a single DNS query or can
       involve several steps, such as finding the correct site or trying out multiple host names
       in case some of the configured servers are not reachable. The more complex scenarios can
       take some time and SSSD needs to balance between providing enough time to finish the
       resolution process but on the other hand, not trying for too long before falling back to
       offline mode. If the SSSD debug logs show that the server resolution is timing out before
       a live server is contacted, you can consider changing the time outs.

       This section lists the available tunables. Please refer to their description in the
       sssd.conf(5), manual page.

       dns_resolver_op_timeout
           How long would SSSD talk to a single DNS server.

       dns_resolver_timeout
           How long would SSSD try to resolve a failover service. This service resolution
           internally might include several steps, such as resolving DNS SRV queries or locating
           the site.

       For LDAP-based providers, the resolve operation is performed as part of an LDAP connection
       operation. Thefore, also the “ldap_opt_timeout>” timeout should be set to a larger value
       than “dns_resolver_timeout” which in turn should be set to a larger value than
       “dns_resolver_op_timeout”.

SERVICE DISCOVERY

       The service discovery feature allows back ends to automatically find the appropriate
       servers to connect to using a special DNS query. This feature is not supported for backup
       servers.

   Configuration
       If no servers are specified, the back end automatically uses service discovery to try to
       find a server. Optionally, the user may choose to use both fixed server addresses and
       service discovery by inserting a special keyword, “_srv_”, in the list of servers. The
       order of preference is maintained. This feature is useful if, for example, the user
       prefers to use service discovery whenever possible, and fall back to a specific server
       when no servers can be discovered using DNS.

   The domain name
       Please refer to the “dns_discovery_domain” parameter in the sssd.conf(5) manual page for
       more details.

   The protocol
       The queries usually specify _tcp as the protocol. Exceptions are documented in respective
       option description.

   See Also
       For more information on the service discovery mechanism, refer to RFC 2782.

ID MAPPING

       The ID-mapping feature allows SSSD to act as a client of Active Directory without
       requiring administrators to extend user attributes to support POSIX attributes for user
       and group identifiers.

       NOTE: When ID-mapping is enabled, the uidNumber and gidNumber attributes are ignored. This
       is to avoid the possibility of conflicts between automatically-assigned and
       manually-assigned values. If you need to use manually-assigned values, ALL values must be
       manually-assigned.

       Please note that changing the ID mapping related configuration options will cause user and
       group IDs to change. At the moment, SSSD does not support changing IDs, so the SSSD
       database must be removed. Because cached passwords are also stored in the database,
       removing the database should only be performed while the authentication servers are
       reachable, otherwise users might get locked out. In order to cache the password, an
       authentication must be performed. It is not sufficient to use sss_cache(8) to remove the
       database, rather the process consists of:

       •   Making sure the remote servers are reachable

       •   Stopping the SSSD service

       •   Removing the database

       •   Starting the SSSD service

       Moreover, as the change of IDs might necessitate the adjustment of other system properties
       such as file and directory ownership, it's advisable to plan ahead and test the ID mapping
       configuration thoroughly.

   Mapping Algorithm
       Active Directory provides an objectSID for every user and group object in the directory.
       This objectSID can be broken up into components that represent the Active Directory domain
       identity and the relative identifier (RID) of the user or group object.

       The SSSD ID-mapping algorithm takes a range of available UIDs and divides it into
       equally-sized component sections - called "slices"-. Each slice represents the space
       available to an Active Directory domain.

       When a user or group entry for a particular domain is encountered for the first time, the
       SSSD allocates one of the available slices for that domain. In order to make this
       slice-assignment repeatable on different client machines, we select the slice based on the
       following algorithm:

       The SID string is passed through the murmurhash3 algorithm to convert it to a 32-bit
       hashed value. We then take the modulus of this value with the total number of available
       slices to pick the slice.

       NOTE: It is possible to encounter collisions in the hash and subsequent modulus. In these
       situations, we will select the next available slice, but it may not be possible to
       reproduce the same exact set of slices on other machines (since the order that they are
       encountered will determine their slice). In this situation, it is recommended to either
       switch to using explicit POSIX attributes in Active Directory (disabling ID-mapping) or
       configure a default domain to guarantee that at least one is always consistent. See
       “Configuration” for details.

   Configuration
       Minimum configuration (in the “[domain/DOMAINNAME]” section):

           ldap_id_mapping = True
           ldap_schema = ad

       The default configuration results in configuring 10,000 slices, each capable of holding up
       to 200,000 IDs, starting from 200,000 and going up to 2,000,200,000. This should be
       sufficient for most deployments.

       Advanced Configuration
           ldap_idmap_range_min (integer)
               Specifies the lower bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for mapping Active
               Directory user and group SIDs.

               NOTE: This option is different from “min_id” in that “min_id” acts to filter the
               output of requests to this domain, whereas this option controls the range of ID
               assignment. This is a subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
               have “min_id” be less-than or equal to “ldap_idmap_range_min”

               Default: 200000

           ldap_idmap_range_max (integer)
               Specifies the upper bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for mapping Active
               Directory user and group SIDs.

               NOTE: This option is different from “max_id” in that “max_id” acts to filter the
               output of requests to this domain, whereas this option controls the range of ID
               assignment. This is a subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
               have “max_id” be greater-than or equal to “ldap_idmap_range_max”

               Default: 2000200000

           ldap_idmap_range_size (integer)
               Specifies the number of IDs available for each slice. If the range size does not
               divide evenly into the min and max values, it will create as many complete slices
               as it can.

               NOTE: The value of this option must be at least as large as the highest user RID
               planned for use on the Active Directory server. User lookups and login will fail
               for any user whose RID is greater than this value.

               For example, if your most recently-added Active Directory user has
               objectSid=S-1-5-21-2153326666-2176343378-3404031434-1107, “ldap_idmap_range_size”
               must be at least 1108 as range size is equal to maximal SID minus minimal SID plus
               one (e.g. 1108 = 1107 - 0 + 1).

               It is important to plan ahead for future expansion, as changing this value will
               result in changing all of the ID mappings on the system, leading to users with
               different local IDs than they previously had.

               Default: 200000

           ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid (string)
               Specify the domain SID of the default domain. This will guarantee that this domain
               will always be assigned to slice zero in the ID map, bypassing the murmurhash
               algorithm described above.

               Default: not set

           ldap_idmap_default_domain (string)
               Specify the name of the default domain.

               Default: not set

           ldap_idmap_autorid_compat (boolean)
               Changes the behavior of the ID-mapping algorithm to behave more similarly to
               winbind's “idmap_autorid” algorithm.

               When this option is configured, domains will be allocated starting with slice zero
               and increasing monatomically with each additional domain.

               NOTE: This algorithm is non-deterministic (it depends on the order that users and
               groups are requested). If this mode is required for compatibility with machines
               running winbind, it is recommended to also use the “ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid”
               option to guarantee that at least one domain is consistently allocated to slice
               zero.

               Default: False

           ldap_idmap_helper_table_size (integer)
               Maximal number of secondary slices that is tried when performing mapping from UNIX
               id to SID.

               Note: Additional secondary slices might be generated when SID is being mapped to
               UNIX id and RID part of SID is out of range for secondary slices generated so far.
               If value of ldap_idmap_helper_table_size is equal to 0 then no additional
               secondary slices are generated.

               Default: 10

   Well-Known SIDs
       SSSD supports to look up the names of Well-Known SIDs, i.e. SIDs with a special hardcoded
       meaning. Since the generic users and groups related to those Well-Known SIDs have no
       equivalent in a Linux/UNIX environment no POSIX IDs are available for those objects.

       The SID name space is organized in authorities which can be seen as different domains. The
       authorities for the Well-Known SIDs are

       •   Null Authority

       •   World Authority

       •   Local Authority

       •   Creator Authority

       •   NT Authority

       •   Built-in

       The capitalized version of these names are used as domain names when returning the fully
       qualified name of a Well-Known SID.

       Since some utilities allow to modify SID based access control information with the help of
       a name instead of using the SID directly SSSD supports to look up the SID by the name as
       well. To avoid collisions only the fully qualified names can be used to look up Well-Known
       SIDs. As a result the domain names “NULL AUTHORITY”, “WORLD AUTHORITY”, “ LOCAL
       AUTHORITY”, “CREATOR AUTHORITY”, “NT AUTHORITY” and “BUILTIN” should not be used as domain
       names in sssd.conf.

EXAMPLE

       The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly configured and LDAP is set to one of
       the domains in the [domains] section.

           [domain/LDAP]
           id_provider = ldap
           auth_provider = ldap
           ldap_uri = ldap://ldap.mydomain.org
           ldap_search_base = dc=mydomain,dc=org
           ldap_tls_reqcert = demand
           cache_credentials = true

LDAP ACCESS FILTER EXAMPLE

       The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly configured and to use the
       ldap_access_order=lockout.

           [domain/LDAP]
           id_provider = ldap
           auth_provider = ldap
           access_provider = ldap
           ldap_access_order = lockout
           ldap_pwdlockout_dn = cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=mydomain,dc=org
           ldap_uri = ldap://ldap.mydomain.org
           ldap_search_base = dc=mydomain,dc=org
           ldap_tls_reqcert = demand
           cache_credentials = true
