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.

NAME

       sss_useradd - create a new user

SYNOPSIS

       sss_useradd [options] LOGIN

DESCRIPTION

       sss_useradd creates a new user account using the values specified on the command line plus the default values from the system.

OPTIONS

       -u,--uid UID
	   Set the UID of the user to the value of UID. If not given, it is chosen automatically.

       -c,--gecos COMMENT
	   Any text string describing the user. Often used as the field for the user's full name.

       -h,--home HOME_DIR
	   The home directory of the user account. The default is to append the LOGIN name to /home and use that as the home directory. The base
	   that is prepended before LOGIN is tunable with "user_defaults/baseDirectory" setting in sssd.conf.

       -s,--shell SHELL
	   The user's login shell. The default is currently /bin/bash. The default can be changed with "user_defaults/defaultShell" setting in
	   sssd.conf.

       -G,--groups GROUPS
	   A list of existing groups this user is also a member of.

       -m,--create-home
	   Create the user's home directory if it does not exist. The files and directories contained in the skeleton directory (which can be
	   defined with the -k option or in the config file) will be copied to the home directory.

       -M,--no-create-home
	   Do not create the user's home directory. Overrides configuration settings.

       -k,--skel SKELDIR
	   The skeleton directory, which contains files and directories to be copied in the user's home directory, when the home directory is
	   created by sss_useradd.

	   Special files (block devices, character devices, named pipes and unix sockets) will not be copied.

	   This option is only valid if the -m (or --create-home) option is specified, or creation of home directories is set to TRUE in the
	   configuration.

       -Z,--selinux-user SELINUX_USER
	   The SELinux user for the user's login. If not specified, the system default will be used.

       -?,--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.
