sss_groupadd

SSS_GROUPADD(8) 						 SSSD Manual pages						   SSS_GROUPADD(8)

NAME

       sss_groupadd - create a new group

SYNOPSIS

       sss_groupadd [options] GROUP

DESCRIPTION

       sss_groupadd creates a new group. These groups are compatible with POSIX groups, with the additional feature that they can contain other
       groups as members.

OPTIONS

       -g,--gid GID
	   Set the GID of the group to the value of GID. If not given, it is chosen automatically.

       -h,--help
	   Display help message and exit.

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.

SEE ALSO

       sss_groupdel(8), sss_groupmod(8), sss_groupshow(8), sss_useradd(8), sss_userdel(8), sss_usermod(8).
