+ The IPA provider is a back end used to connect to an IPA server.
+ (Refer to the freeipa.org web site for information about IPA servers.)
+ This provider requires that the machine be joined to the IPA domain;
+ configuration is almost entirely self-discovered and obtained
+ directly from the server.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The IPA provider accepts the same options used by the
+ <citerefentry>
+ <refentrytitle>sssd-ldap</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
+ </citerefentry> identity provider and the
+ <citerefentry>
+ <refentrytitle>sssd-krb5</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
+ </citerefentry> authentication provider.
+ However, it is neither necessary nor recommended to set these options.
