NAME
sss_seed - seed the SSSD cache with a user SYNOPSIS
sss_seed [options] -D DOMAIN -n USER DESCRIPTION
sss_seed seeds the SSSD cache with a user entry and temporary password. If a user entry is already present in the SSSD cache then the entry is updated with the temporary password. OPTIONS
-D,--domain DOMAIN Provide the name of the domain in which the user is a member of. The domain is also used to retrieve user information. The domain must be configured in sssd.conf. The DOMAIN option must be provided. Information retrieved from the domain overrides what is provided in the options. -n,--username USER The username of the entry to be created or modified in the cache. The USER option must be provided. -u,--uid UID Set the UID of the user to UID. -g,--gid GID Set the GID of the user to GID. -c,--gecos COMMENT Any text string describing the user. Often used as the field for the user's full name. -h,--home HOME_DIR Set the home directory of the user to HOME_DIR. -s,--shell SHELL Set the login shell of the user to SHELL. -i,--interactive Interactive mode for entering user information. This option will only prompt for information not provided in the options or retrieved from the domain. -p,--password-file PASS_FILE Specify file to read user's password from. (if not specified password is prompted for) -?,--help Display help message and exit. NOTES
The length of the password (or the size of file specified with -p or --password-file option) must be less than or equal to PASS_MAX bytes (64 bytes on systems with no globally-defined PASS_MAX value). SEE ALSO

NAME
pam_sss - PAM module for SSSD SYNOPSIS
pam_sss.so [quiet] [forward_pass] [use_first_pass] [use_authtok] [retry=N] DESCRIPTION
pam_sss.so is the PAM interface to the System Security Services daemon (SSSD). Errors and results are logged through syslog(3) with the LOG_AUTHPRIV facility. OPTIONS
quiet Suppress log messages for unknown users. forward_pass If forward_pass is set the entered password is put on the stack for other PAM modules to use. use_first_pass The argument use_first_pass forces the module to use a previous stacked modules password and will never prompt the user - if no password is available or the password is not appropriate, the user will be denied access. use_authtok When password changing enforce the module to set the new password to the one provided by a previously stacked password module. retry=N If specified the user is asked another N times for a password if authentication fails. Default is 0. Please note that this option might not work as expected if the application calling PAM handles the user dialog on its own. A typical example is sshd with PasswordAuthentication. MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
All module types (account, auth, password and session) are provided. FILES
If a password reset by root fails, because the corresponding SSSD provider does not support password resets, an individual message can be displayed. This message can e.g. contain instructions about how to reset a password. The message is read from the file pam_sss_pw_reset_message.LOC where LOC stands for a locale string returned by setlocale(3). If there is no matching file the content of pam_sss_pw_reset_message.txt is displayed. Root must be the owner of the files and only root may have read and write permissions while all other users must have only read permissions. These files are searched in the directory /etc/sssd/customize/DOMAIN_NAME/. If no matching file is present a generic message is displayed. SEE ALSO
