6 sssd - System Security Services Daemon
7
9 sssd [options]
10
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.
19
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

47 -h,--help
48 Display help message and exit.
49
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.
