THE LOCAL DOMAIN

       In order to function correctly, a domain with “id_provider=local” must be created and the SSSD must be
       running.

       The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead of traditional UNIX users in cases where
       the group nesting (see sss_groupadd(8)) is needed. The local users are also useful for testing and
       development of the SSSD without having to deploy a full remote server. The sss_user* and sss_group* tools
       use a local LDB storage to store users and groups.
