Very Quick Guide to build sssd components
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use the following instructions to build the libraries and the binaries.

sssd depends on 4 libraries originated in the samba project:
talloc, tdb, tevent, ldb

They are now available in major distribution development branches.

If you have these libraries installed skip to <<Compiling sssd with system
installed libraries>>

If you want to build them from source download the latest samba master branch
and use the following instructions

Compiling libraries yourself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE: these instructions are temporary and will most likely change agt some
point but so far the process I describe here is the best one to get something up
and working while developing this project.

Each library and the sssd service have a --with-shared-build-dir configure option
that is useful to build the libraries so that you can build all pieces before
installing each library as a dependency.
If you just want to make a development build you can provide a temporary
directory where libraries are installed during the build process in a way that
let each dependent library find them without having to install each binary into
its finally system library directory (ie build as user).

I use the following steps to build all pieces.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/foo/lib
pushd lib/talloc; ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-shared-build-dir=/tmp/foo && make shared-build; popd
pushd lib/tdb; ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-shared-build-dir=/tmp/foo && make shared-build; popd
pushd lib/tevent; ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-shared-build-dir=/tmp/foo && make shared-build; popd
pushd source4/lib/ldb; ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-shared-build-dir=/tmp/foo && make shared-build; popd

Compiling sssd using shared-build
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
pushd server; ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-shared-build-dir=/tmp/foo && make; popd

At this point you can start testing the sssd daemon this way:

cd server
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/foo/lib
./sbin/sssd -i

This will start the sssd daemon in interactive mode.

Compiling sssd with system installed libraries
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
pushd server; ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make; popd

Compiling client libraries
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The nss and pam client doesn't need any dependency nor supports the
shared-build option.

pushd sss_client; ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make; popd

Now you have to copy libnss_sss* into /lib (or /lib64) and add the 'sss' traget
to nsswitch.conf passwd database

For pam copy pam_sss.so into /lib/security (or /lib64/security) and add
pam_sss.so to your pam configuration. To use the pam_test_client from
sss_client create the following file:

/etc/pam.d/sss_test:
auth     required pam_sss.so
account  required pam_sss.so
password required pam_sss.so
session  required pam_sss.so

Now you can call pam_test_client:
./pam_test_client [auth|chau|acct|setc|open|clos] username@domain

Simo.
