35

THE LOCAL DOMAIN

37       In order to function correctly, a domain with “id_provider=local” must
38       be created and the SSSD must be running.
39
40       The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead of
41       traditional UNIX users in cases where the group nesting (see
42       sss_groupadd(8)) is needed. The local users are also useful for testing
43       and development of the SSSD without having to deploy a full remote
44       server. The sss_user* and sss_group* tools use a local LDB storage to
45       store users and groups.
