60 The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead of
61 traditional UNIX users in cases where the group nesting (see
62 sss_groupadd(8)) is needed. The local users are also useful for testing
63 and development of the SSSD without having to deploy a full remote
64 server. The sss_user* and sss_group* tools use a local LDB storage to
65 store users and groups.
