SSSD files provider
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the files provider
for
sssd
8
.
For a detailed syntax reference, refer to the FILE FORMAT
section of the
sssd.conf
5
manual page.
The files provider mirrors the content of the
passwd
5
and
group
5
files. The purpose of the files provider is to make the users
and groups traditionally only accessible with NSS interfaces
also available through the SSSD interfaces such as
sssd-ifp
5
.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
The files provider has no specific options of its own, however,
generic SSSD domain options can be set where applicable.
Refer to the section DOMAIN SECTIONS
of the
sssd.conf
5
manual page for details on the configuration
of an SSSD domain.
EXAMPLE
The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly
configured and files is one of the domains in the
