NAME

6       sssd - System Security Services Daemon
7

SYNOPSIS

9       sssd [options]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       SSSD provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories
13       and authentication mechanisms. It provides an NSS and PAM interface
14       toward the system and a pluggable backend system to connect to multiple
15       different account sources as well as D-Bus interface. It is also the
16       basis to provide client auditing and policy services for projects like
17       FreeIPA. It provides a more robust database to store local users as
18       well as extended user data.

OPTIONS

21       -d,--debug-level LEVEL
22           Debug level to run the daemon with. 0 is the default as well as the
23           lowest allowed value, 10 is the most verbose mode. This setting
24           overrides the settings from config file. This parameter implies -i.
25
26       debug_timestamps (bool)
27           Add a timestamp to the debug messages
28
29           Default: false
30
31       -f,--debug-to-files
32           Send the debug output to files instead of stderr. By default, the
33           log files are stored in /var/log/sssd and there are separate log
34           files for every SSSD service and domain.
35
36       -D,--daemon
37           Become a daemon after starting up.
38
39       -i,--interactive
40           Run in the foreground, don't become a daemon.
41
42       -c,--config
43           Specify a non-default config file. The default is
44           /etc/sssd/sssd.conf. For reference on the config file syntax and
45           options, consult the sssd.conf(5) manual page.
46
47       -h,--help
48           Display help message and exit.

SIGNALS

51       SIGTERM/SIGINT
52           Informs the SSSD to gracefully terminate all of its child processes
53           and then shut down the monitor.
54
55       SIGHUP
56           Tells the SSSD to stop writing to its current debug file
57           descriptors and to close and reopen them. This is meant to
58           facilitate log rolling with programs like logrotate.
59
60       SIGUSR1
61           Tells the SSSD to simulate offline operation for one minute. This
62           is mostly useful for testing purposes.
63
64       SIGUSR2
65           Tells the SSSD to go online immediately. This is mostly useful for
66           testing purposes.
