6 sssd-ldap - SSSD LDAP provider
7
9 This manual page describes the configuration of LDAP domains for
10 sssd(8). Refer to the “FILE FORMAT” section of the sssd.conf(5) manual
11 page for detailed syntax information.
12
13 You can configure SSSD to use more than one LDAP domain.
14
15 LDAP back end supports id, auth, access and chpass providers. If you
16 want to authenticate against an LDAP server either TLS/SSL or LDAPS is
17 required. sssd does not support authentication over an unencrypted
18 channel. If the LDAP server is used only as an identity provider, an
19 encrypted channel is not needed. Please refer to “ldap_access_filter”
20 config option for more information about using LDAP as an access
21 provider.
22
24 All of the common configuration options that apply to SSSD domains also
25 apply to LDAP domains. Refer to the “DOMAIN SECTIONS” section of the
26 sssd.conf(5) manual page for full details. Note that SSSD LDAP mapping
27 attributes are described in the sssd-ldap-attributes(5) manual page.
28
29 ldap_uri, ldap_backup_uri (string)
30 Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to
31 which SSSD should connect in the order of preference. Refer to the
32 “FAILOVER” section for more information on failover and server
33 redundancy. If neither option is specified, service discovery is
34 enabled. For more information, refer to the “SERVICE DISCOVERY”
35 section.
36
37 The format of the URI must match the format defined in RFC 2732:
38
39 ldap[s]://<host>[:port]
40
41 For explicit IPv6 addresses, <host> must be enclosed in brackets []
42
43 example: ldap://[fc00::126:25]:389
44
45 ldap_chpass_uri, ldap_chpass_backup_uri (string)
46 Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to
47 which SSSD should connect in the order of preference to change the
48 password of a user. Refer to the “FAILOVER” section for more
49 information on failover and server redundancy.
50
51 To enable service discovery ldap_chpass_dns_service_name must be
52 set.
53
54 Default: empty, i.e. ldap_uri is used.
55
56 ldap_search_base (string)
57 The default base DN to use for performing LDAP user operations.
58
59 Starting with SSSD 1.7.0, SSSD supports multiple search bases using
60 the syntax:
61
62 search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]
63
64 The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree".
65
66 The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
67 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt
68
69 Examples:
70
71 ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com (which is equivalent to)
72 ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com?subtree?
73
74 ldap_search_base =
75 cn=host_specific,dc=example,dc=com?subtree?(host=thishost)?dc=example.com?subtree?
76
77 Note: It is unsupported to have multiple search bases which
78 reference identically-named objects (for example, groups with the
79 same name in two different search bases). This will lead to
80 unpredictable behavior on client machines.
81
82 Default: If not set, the value of the defaultNamingContext or
83 namingContexts attribute from the RootDSE of the LDAP server is
84 used. If defaultNamingContext does not exist or has an empty value
85 namingContexts is used. The namingContexts attribute must have a
86 single value with the DN of the search base of the LDAP server to
87 make this work. Multiple values are are not supported.
88
89 ldap_schema (string)
90 Specifies the Schema Type in use on the target LDAP server.
91 Depending on the selected schema, the default attribute names
92 retrieved from the servers may vary. The way that some attributes
93 are handled may also differ.
94
95 Four schema types are currently supported:
96
97 • rfc2307
98
99 • rfc2307bis
100
101 • IPA
102
103 • AD
104
105 The main difference between these schema types is how group
106 memberships are recorded in the server. With rfc2307, group members
107 are listed by name in the memberUid attribute. With rfc2307bis and
108 IPA, group members are listed by DN and stored in the member
109 attribute. The AD schema type sets the attributes to correspond
110 with Active Directory 2008r2 values.
111
112 Default: rfc2307
113
114 ldap_pwmodify_mode (string)
115 Specify the operation that is used to modify user password.
116
117 Two modes are currently supported:
118
119 • exop - Password Modify Extended Operation (RFC 3062)
120
121 • ldap_modify - Direct modification of userPassword (not
122 recommended).
123
124 Note: First, a new connection is established to verify current
125 password by binding as the user that requested password change. If
126 successful, this connection is used to change the password
127 therefore the user must have write access to userPassword
128 attribute.
129
130 Default: exop
131
132 ldap_default_bind_dn (string)
133 The default bind DN to use for performing LDAP operations.
134
135 ldap_default_authtok_type (string)
136 The type of the authentication token of the default bind DN.
137
138 The two mechanisms currently supported are:
139
140 password
141
142 obfuscated_password
143
144 Default: password
145
146 See the sss_obfuscate(8) manual page for more information.
147
148 ldap_default_authtok (string)
149 The authentication token of the default bind DN.
150
151 ldap_force_upper_case_realm (boolean)
152 Some directory servers, for example Active Directory, might deliver
153 the realm part of the UPN in lower case, which might cause the
154 authentication to fail. Set this option to a non-zero value if you
155 want to use an upper-case realm.
156
157 Default: false
158
159 ldap_enumeration_refresh_timeout (integer)
160 Specifies how many seconds SSSD has to wait before refreshing its
161 cache of enumerated records.
162
163 Default: 300
164
165 ldap_purge_cache_timeout (integer)
166 Determine how often to check the cache for inactive entries (such
167 as groups with no members and users who have never logged in) and
168 remove them to save space.
169
170 Setting this option to zero will disable the cache cleanup
171 operation. Please note that if enumeration is enabled, the cleanup
172 task is required in order to detect entries removed from the server
173 and can't be disabled. By default, the cleanup task will run every
174 3 hours with enumeration enabled.
175
176 Default: 0 (disabled)
177
178 ldap_group_nesting_level (integer)
179 If ldap_schema is set to a schema format that supports nested
180 groups (e.g. RFC2307bis), then this option controls how many levels
181 of nesting SSSD will follow. This option has no effect on the
182 RFC2307 schema.
183
184 Note: This option specifies the guaranteed level of nested groups
185 to be processed for any lookup. However, nested groups beyond this
186 limit may be returned if previous lookups already resolved the
187 deeper nesting levels. Also, subsequent lookups for other groups
188 may enlarge the result set for original lookup if re-queried.
189
190 If ldap_group_nesting_level is set to 0 then no nested groups are
191 processed at all. However, when connected to Active-Directory
192 Server 2008 and later using “id_provider=ad” it is furthermore
193 required to disable usage of Token-Groups by setting
194 ldap_use_tokengroups to false in order to restrict group nesting.
195
196 Default: 2
197
198 ldap_use_tokengroups
199 This options enables or disables use of Token-Groups attribute when
200 performing initgroup for users from Active Directory Server 2008
201 and later.
202
203 Default: True for AD and IPA otherwise False.
204
205 ldap_host_search_base (string)
206 Optional. Use the given string as search base for host objects.
207
208 See “ldap_search_base” for information about configuring multiple
209 search bases.
210
211 Default: the value of ldap_search_base
212
213 ldap_service_search_base (string)
214 An optional base DN, search scope and LDAP filter to restrict LDAP
215 searches for this attribute type.
216
217 syntax:
218
219 search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]
220
221 The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The scope
222 functions as specified in section 4.5.1.2 of
223 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511
224
225 The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
226 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt
227
228 For examples of this syntax, please refer to the “ldap_search_base”
229 examples section.
230
231 Default: the value of ldap_search_base
232
233 Please note that specifying scope or filter is not supported for
234 searches against an Active Directory Server that might yield a
235 large number of results and trigger the Range Retrieval extension
236 in the response.
237
238 ldap_iphost_search_base (string)
239 An optional base DN, search scope and LDAP filter to restrict LDAP
240 searches for this attribute type.
241
242 syntax:
243
244 search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]
245
246 The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The scope
247 functions as specified in section 4.5.1.2 of
248 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511
249
250 The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
251 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt
252
253 For examples of this syntax, please refer to the “ldap_search_base”
254 examples section.
255
256 Default: the value of ldap_search_base
257
258 Please note that specifying scope or filter is not supported for
259 searches against an Active Directory Server that might yield a
260 large number of results and trigger the Range Retrieval extension
261 in the response.
262
263 ldap_ipnetwork_search_base (string)
264 An optional base DN, search scope and LDAP filter to restrict LDAP
265 searches for this attribute type.
266
267 syntax:
268
269 search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*]
270
271 The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The scope
272 functions as specified in section 4.5.1.2 of
273 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511
274
275 The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by
276 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt
277
278 For examples of this syntax, please refer to the “ldap_search_base”
279 examples section.
280
281 Default: the value of ldap_search_base
282
283 Please note that specifying scope or filter is not supported for
284 searches against an Active Directory Server that might yield a
285 large number of results and trigger the Range Retrieval extension
286 in the response.
287
288 ldap_search_timeout (integer)
289 Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches are allowed
290 to run before they are cancelled and cached results are returned
291 (and offline mode is entered)
292
293 Note: this option is subject to change in future versions of the
294 SSSD. It will likely be replaced at some point by a series of
295 timeouts for specific lookup types.
296
297 Default: 6
298
299 ldap_enumeration_search_timeout (integer)
300 Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches for user and
301 group enumerations are allowed to run before they are cancelled and
302 cached results are returned (and offline mode is entered)
303
304 Default: 60
305
306 ldap_network_timeout (integer)
307 Specifies the timeout (in seconds) after which the
308 poll(2)/select(2) following a connect(2) returns in case of no
309 activity.
310
311 Default: 6
312
313 ldap_opt_timeout (integer)
314 Specifies a timeout (in seconds) after which calls to synchronous
315 LDAP APIs will abort if no response is received. Also controls the
316 timeout when communicating with the KDC in case of SASL bind, the
317 timeout of an LDAP bind operation, password change extended
318 operation and the StartTLS operation.
319
320 Default: 8
321
322 ldap_connection_expire_timeout (integer)
323 Specifies a timeout (in seconds) that a connection to an LDAP
324 server will be maintained. After this time, the connection will be
325 re-established. If used in parallel with SASL/GSSAPI, the sooner of
326 the two values (this value vs. the TGT lifetime) will be used.
327
328 This timeout can be extended of a random value specified by
329 ldap_connection_expire_offset
330
331 Default: 900 (15 minutes)
332
333 ldap_connection_expire_offset (integer)
334 Random offset between 0 and configured value is added to
335 ldap_connection_expire_timeout.
336
337 Default: 0
338
339 ldap_page_size (integer)
340 Specify the number of records to retrieve from LDAP in a single
341 request. Some LDAP servers enforce a maximum limit per-request.
342
343 Default: 1000
344
345 ldap_disable_paging (boolean)
346 Disable the LDAP paging control. This option should be used if the
347 LDAP server reports that it supports the LDAP paging control in its
348 RootDSE but it is not enabled or does not behave properly.
349
350 Example: OpenLDAP servers with the paging control module installed
351 on the server but not enabled will report it in the RootDSE but be
352 unable to use it.
353
354 Example: 389 DS has a bug where it can only support a one paging
355 control at a time on a single connection. On busy clients, this can
356 result in some requests being denied.
357
358 Default: False
359
360 ldap_disable_range_retrieval (boolean)
361 Disable Active Directory range retrieval.
362
363 Active Directory limits the number of members to be retrieved in a
364 single lookup using the MaxValRange policy (which defaults to 1500
365 members). If a group contains more members, the reply would include
366 an AD-specific range extension. This option disables parsing of the
367 range extension, therefore large groups will appear as having no
368 members.
369
370 Default: False
371
372 ldap_sasl_minssf (integer)
373 When communicating with an LDAP server using SASL, specify the
374 minimum security level necessary to establish the connection. The
375 values of this option are defined by OpenLDAP.
376
377 Default: Use the system default (usually specified by ldap.conf)
378
379 ldap_sasl_maxssf (integer)
380 When communicating with an LDAP server using SASL, specify the
381 maximal security level necessary to establish the connection. The
382 values of this option are defined by OpenLDAP.
383
384 Default: Use the system default (usually specified by ldap.conf)
385
386 ldap_deref_threshold (integer)
387 Specify the number of group members that must be missing from the
388 internal cache in order to trigger a dereference lookup. If less
389 members are missing, they are looked up individually.
390
391 You can turn off dereference lookups completely by setting the
392 value to 0. Please note that there are some codepaths in SSSD, like
393 the IPA HBAC provider, that are only implemented using the
394 dereference call, so even with dereference explicitly disabled,
395 those parts will still use dereference if the server supports it
396 and advertises the dereference control in the rootDSE object.
397
398 A dereference lookup is a means of fetching all group members in a
399 single LDAP call. Different LDAP servers may implement different
400 dereference methods. The currently supported servers are 389/RHDS,
401 OpenLDAP and Active Directory.
402
403 Note: If any of the search bases specifies a search filter, then
404 the dereference lookup performance enhancement will be disabled
405 regardless of this setting.
406
407 Default: 10
408
409 ldap_tls_reqcert (string)
410 Specifies what checks to perform on server certificates in a TLS
411 session, if any. It can be specified as one of the following
412 values:
413
414 never = The client will not request or check any server
415 certificate.
416
417 allow = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is
418 provided, the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is
419 provided, it will be ignored and the session proceeds normally.
420
421 try = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is
422 provided, the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is
423 provided, the session is immediately terminated.
424
425 demand = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is
426 provided, or a bad certificate is provided, the session is
427 immediately terminated.
428
429 hard = Same as “demand”
430
431 Default: hard
432
433 ldap_tls_cacert (string)
434 Specifies the file that contains certificates for all of the
435 Certificate Authorities that sssd will recognize.
436
437 Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in
438 /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
439
440 ldap_tls_cacertdir (string)
441 Specifies the path of a directory that contains Certificate
442 Authority certificates in separate individual files. Typically the
443 file names need to be the hash of the certificate followed by '.0'.
444 If available, cacertdir_rehash can be used to create the correct
445 names.
446
447 Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in
448 /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
449
450 ldap_tls_cert (string)
451 Specifies the file that contains the certificate for the client's
452 key.
453
454 Default: not set
455
456 ldap_tls_key (string)
457 Specifies the file that contains the client's key.
458
459 Default: not set
460
461 ldap_tls_cipher_suite (string)
462 Specifies acceptable cipher suites. Typically this is a colon
463 separated list. See ldap.conf(5) for format.
464
465 Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in
466 /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
467
468 ldap_id_use_start_tls (boolean)
469 Specifies that the id_provider connection must also use tls to
470 protect the channel.
471
472 Default: false
473
474 ldap_id_mapping (boolean)
475 Specifies that SSSD should attempt to map user and group IDs from
476 the ldap_user_objectsid and ldap_group_objectsid attributes instead
477 of relying on ldap_user_uid_number and ldap_group_gid_number.
478
479 Currently this feature supports only ActiveDirectory objectSID
480 mapping.
481
482 Default: false
483
484 ldap_min_id, ldap_max_id (integer)
485 In contrast to the SID based ID mapping which is used if
486 ldap_id_mapping is set to true the allowed ID range for
487 ldap_user_uid_number and ldap_group_gid_number is unbound. In a
488 setup with sub/trusted-domains this might lead to ID collisions. To
489 avoid collisions ldap_min_id and ldap_max_id can be set to restrict
490 the allowed range for the IDs which are read directly from the
491 server. Sub-domains can then pick other ranges to map IDs.
492
493 Default: not set (both options are set to 0)
494
495 ldap_sasl_mech (string)
496 Specify the SASL mechanism to use. Currently only GSSAPI and
497 GSS-SPNEGO are tested and supported.
498
499 If the backend supports sub-domains the value of ldap_sasl_mech is
500 automatically inherited to the sub-domains. If a different value is
501 needed for a sub-domain it can be overwritten by setting
502 ldap_sasl_mech for this sub-domain explicitly. Please see TRUSTED
503 DOMAIN SECTION in sssd.conf(5) for details.
504
505 Default: not set
506
507 ldap_sasl_authid (string)
508 Specify the SASL authorization id to use. When GSSAPI/GSS-SPNEGO
509 are used, this represents the Kerberos principal used for
510 authentication to the directory. This option can either contain the
511 full principal (for example host/myhost@EXAMPLE.COM) or just the
512 principal name (for example host/myhost). By default, the value is
513 not set and the following principals are used:
514
515 hostname@REALM
516 netbiosname$@REALM
517 host/hostname@REALM
518 *$@REALM
519 host/*@REALM
520 host/*
521
522
523 If none of them are found, the first principal in keytab is
524 returned.
525
526 Default: host/hostname@REALM
527
528 ldap_sasl_realm (string)
529 Specify the SASL realm to use. When not specified, this option
530 defaults to the value of krb5_realm. If the ldap_sasl_authid
531 contains the realm as well, this option is ignored.
532
533 Default: the value of krb5_realm.
534
535 ldap_sasl_canonicalize (boolean)
536 If set to true, the LDAP library would perform a reverse lookup to
537 canonicalize the host name during a SASL bind.
538
539 Default: false;
540
541 ldap_krb5_keytab (string)
542 Specify the keytab to use when using SASL/GSSAPI/GSS-SPNEGO.
543
544 Default: System keytab, normally /etc/krb5.keytab
545
546 ldap_krb5_init_creds (boolean)
547 Specifies that the id_provider should init Kerberos credentials
548 (TGT). This action is performed only if SASL is used and the
549 mechanism selected is GSSAPI or GSS-SPNEGO.
550
551 Default: true
552
553 ldap_krb5_ticket_lifetime (integer)
554 Specifies the lifetime in seconds of the TGT if GSSAPI or
555 GSS-SPNEGO is used.
556
557 Default: 86400 (24 hours)
558
559 krb5_server, krb5_backup_server (string)
560 Specifies the comma-separated list of IP addresses or hostnames of
561 the Kerberos servers to which SSSD should connect in the order of
562 preference. For more information on failover and server redundancy,
563 see the “FAILOVER” section. An optional port number (preceded by a
564 colon) may be appended to the addresses or hostnames. If empty,
565 service discovery is enabled - for more information, refer to the
566 “SERVICE DISCOVERY” section.
567
568 When using service discovery for KDC or kpasswd servers, SSSD first
569 searches for DNS entries that specify _udp as the protocol and
570 falls back to _tcp if none are found.
571
572 This option was named “krb5_kdcip” in earlier releases of SSSD.
573 While the legacy name is recognized for the time being, users are
574 advised to migrate their config files to use “krb5_server” instead.
575
576 krb5_realm (string)
577 Specify the Kerberos REALM (for SASL/GSSAPI/GSS-SPNEGO auth).
578
579 Default: System defaults, see /etc/krb5.conf
580
581 krb5_canonicalize (boolean)
582 Specifies if the host principal should be canonicalized when
583 connecting to LDAP server. This feature is available with MIT
584 Kerberos >= 1.7
585
586 Default: false
587
588 krb5_use_kdcinfo (boolean)
589 Specifies if the SSSD should instruct the Kerberos libraries what
590 realm and which KDCs to use. This option is on by default, if you
591 disable it, you need to configure the Kerberos library using the
592 krb5.conf(5) configuration file.
593
594 See the sssd_krb5_locator_plugin(8) manual page for more
595 information on the locator plugin.
596
597 Default: true
598
599 ldap_pwd_policy (string)
600 Select the policy to evaluate the password expiration on the client
601 side. The following values are allowed:
602
603 none - No evaluation on the client side. This option cannot disable
604 server-side password policies.
605
606 shadow - Use shadow(5) style attributes to evaluate if the password
607 has expired.
608
609 mit_kerberos - Use the attributes used by MIT Kerberos to determine
610 if the password has expired. Use chpass_provider=krb5 to update
611 these attributes when the password is changed.
612
613 Default: none
614
615 Note: if a password policy is configured on server side, it always
616 takes precedence over policy set with this option.
617
618 ldap_referrals (boolean)
619 Specifies whether automatic referral chasing should be enabled.
620
621 Please note that sssd only supports referral chasing when it is
622 compiled with OpenLDAP version 2.4.13 or higher.
623
624 Chasing referrals may incur a performance penalty in environments
625 that use them heavily, a notable example is Microsoft Active
626 Directory. If your setup does not in fact require the use of
627 referrals, setting this option to false might bring a noticeable
628 performance improvement. Setting this option to false is therefore
629 recommended in case the SSSD LDAP provider is used together with
630 Microsoft Active Directory as a backend. Even if SSSD would be able
631 to follow the referral to a different AD DC no additional data
632 would be available.
633
634 Default: true
635
636 ldap_dns_service_name (string)
637 Specifies the service name to use when service discovery is
638 enabled.
639
640 Default: ldap
641
642 ldap_chpass_dns_service_name (string)
643 Specifies the service name to use to find an LDAP server which
644 allows password changes when service discovery is enabled.
645
646 Default: not set, i.e. service discovery is disabled
647
648 ldap_chpass_update_last_change (bool)
649 Specifies whether to update the ldap_user_shadow_last_change
650 attribute with days since the Epoch after a password change
651 operation.
652
653 Default: False
654
655 ldap_access_filter (string)
656 If using access_provider = ldap and ldap_access_order = filter
657 (default), this option is mandatory. It specifies an LDAP search
658 filter criteria that must be met for the user to be granted access
659 on this host. If access_provider = ldap, ldap_access_order = filter
660 and this option is not set, it will result in all users being
661 denied access. Use access_provider = permit to change this default
662 behavior. Please note that this filter is applied on the LDAP user
663 entry only and thus filtering based on nested groups may not work
664 (e.g. memberOf attribute on AD entries points only to direct
665 parents). If filtering based on nested groups is required, please
666 see sssd-simple(5).
667
668 Example:
669
670 access_provider = ldap
671 ldap_access_filter = (employeeType=admin)
672
673
674 This example means that access to this host is restricted to users
675 whose employeeType attribute is set to "admin".
676
677 Offline caching for this feature is limited to determining whether
678 the user's last online login was granted access permission. If they
679 were granted access during their last login, they will continue to
680 be granted access while offline and vice versa.
681
682 Default: Empty
683
684 ldap_account_expire_policy (string)
685 With this option a client side evaluation of access control
686 attributes can be enabled.
687
688 Please note that it is always recommended to use server side access
689 control, i.e. the LDAP server should deny the bind request with a
690 suitable error code even if the password is correct.
691
692 The following values are allowed:
693
694 shadow: use the value of ldap_user_shadow_expire to determine if
695 the account is expired.
696
697 ad: use the value of the 32bit field
698 ldap_user_ad_user_account_control and allow access if the second
699 bit is not set. If the attribute is missing access is granted. Also
700 the expiration time of the account is checked.
701
702 rhds, ipa, 389ds: use the value of ldap_ns_account_lock to check if
703 access is allowed or not.
704
705 nds: the values of ldap_user_nds_login_allowed_time_map,
706 ldap_user_nds_login_disabled and
707 ldap_user_nds_login_expiration_time are used to check if access is
708 allowed. If both attributes are missing access is granted.
709 This is an experimental feature, please use
710 https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/ to report any issues.
711
712 Please note that the ldap_access_order configuration option must
713 include “expire” in order for the ldap_account_expire_policy option
714 to work.
715
716 Default: Empty
717
718 ldap_access_order (string)
719 Comma separated list of access control options. Allowed values are:
720
721 filter: use ldap_access_filter
722
723 lockout: use account locking. If set, this option denies access in
724 case that ldap attribute 'pwdAccountLockedTime' is present and has
725 value of '000001010000Z'. Please see the option ldap_pwdlockout_dn.
726 Please note that 'access_provider = ldap' must be set for this
727 feature to work.
728
729 Please note that this option is superseded by the “ppolicy” option
730 and might be removed in a future release.
731
732 ppolicy: use account locking. If set, this option denies access in
733 case that ldap attribute 'pwdAccountLockedTime' is present and has
734 value of '000001010000Z' or represents any time in the past. The
735 value of the 'pwdAccountLockedTime' attribute must end with 'Z',
736 which denotes the UTC time zone. Other time zones are not currently
737 supported and will result in "access-denied" when users attempt to
738 log in. Please see the option ldap_pwdlockout_dn. Please note that
739 'access_provider = ldap' must be set for this feature to work.
740
741 expire: use ldap_account_expire_policy
742
743 pwd_expire_policy_reject, pwd_expire_policy_warn,
744 pwd_expire_policy_renew: These options are useful if users are
745 interested in being warned that password is about to expire and
746 authentication is based on using a different method than passwords
747 - for example SSH keys.
748
749 The difference between these options is the action taken if user
750 password is expired: pwd_expire_policy_reject - user is denied to
751 log in, pwd_expire_policy_warn - user is still able to log in,
752 pwd_expire_policy_renew - user is prompted to change his password
753 immediately.
754
755 Note If user password is expired no explicit message is prompted by
756 SSSD.
757
758 Please note that 'access_provider = ldap' must be set for this
759 feature to work. Also 'ldap_pwd_policy' must be set to an
760 appropriate password policy.
761
762 authorized_service: use the authorizedService attribute to
763 determine access
764
765 host: use the host attribute to determine access
766
767 rhost: use the rhost attribute to determine whether remote host can
768 access
769
770 Please note, rhost field in pam is set by application, it is better
771 to check what the application sends to pam, before enabling this
772 access control option
773
774 Default: filter
775
776 Please note that it is a configuration error if a value is used
777 more than once.
778
779 ldap_pwdlockout_dn (string)
780 This option specifies the DN of password policy entry on LDAP
781 server. Please note that absence of this option in sssd.conf in
782 case of enabled account lockout checking will yield access denied
783 as ppolicy attributes on LDAP server cannot be checked properly.
784
785 Example: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com
786
787 Default: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,$ldap_search_base
788
789 ldap_deref (string)
790 Specifies how alias dereferencing is done when performing a search.
791 The following options are allowed:
792
793 never: Aliases are never dereferenced.
794
795 searching: Aliases are dereferenced in subordinates of the base
796 object, but not in locating the base object of the search.
797
798 finding: Aliases are only dereferenced when locating the base
799 object of the search.
800
801 always: Aliases are dereferenced both in searching and in locating
802 the base object of the search.
803
804 Default: Empty (this is handled as never by the LDAP client
805 libraries)
806
807 ldap_rfc2307_fallback_to_local_users (boolean)
808 Allows to retain local users as members of an LDAP group for
809 servers that use the RFC2307 schema.
810
811 In some environments where the RFC2307 schema is used, local users
812 are made members of LDAP groups by adding their names to the
813 memberUid attribute. The self-consistency of the domain is
814 compromised when this is done, so SSSD would normally remove the
815 "missing" users from the cached group memberships as soon as
816 nsswitch tries to fetch information about the user via getpw*() or
817 initgroups() calls.
818
819 This option falls back to checking if local users are referenced,
820 and caches them so that later initgroups() calls will augment the
821 local users with the additional LDAP groups.
822
823 Default: false
824
825 wildcard_limit (integer)
826 Specifies an upper limit on the number of entries that are
827 downloaded during a wildcard lookup.
828
829 At the moment, only the InfoPipe responder supports wildcard
830 lookups.
831
832 Default: 1000 (often the size of one page)
833
834 ldap_library_debug_level (integer)
835 Switches on libldap debugging with the given level. The libldap
836 debug messages will be written independent of the general
837 debug_level.
838
839 OpenLDAP uses a bitmap to enable debugging for specific components,
840 -1 will enable full debug output.
841
842 Default: 0 (libldap debugging disabled)
843
845 The detailed instructions for configuration of sudo_provider are in the
846 manual page sssd-sudo(5).
847
848 ldap_sudo_full_refresh_interval (integer)
849 How many seconds SSSD will wait between executing a full refresh of
850 sudo rules (which downloads all rules that are stored on the
851 server).
852
853 The value must be greater than ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval
854
855 You can disable full refresh by setting this option to 0. However,
856 either smart or full refresh must be enabled.
857
858 Default: 21600 (6 hours)
859
860 ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval (integer)
861 How many seconds SSSD has to wait before executing a smart refresh
862 of sudo rules (which downloads all rules that have USN higher than
863 the highest server USN value that is currently known by SSSD).
864
865 If USN attributes are not supported by the server, the
866 modifyTimestamp attribute is used instead.
867
868 Note: the highest USN value can be updated by three tasks: 1) By
869 sudo full and smart refresh (if updated rules are found), 2) by
870 enumeration of users and groups (if enabled and updated users or
871 groups are found) and 3) by reconnecting to the server (by default
872 every 15 minutes, see ldap_connection_expire_timeout).
873
874 You can disable smart refresh by setting this option to 0. However,
875 either smart or full refresh must be enabled.
876
877 Default: 900 (15 minutes)
878
879 ldap_sudo_random_offset (integer)
880 Random offset between 0 and configured value is added to smart and
881 full refresh periods each time the periodic task is scheduled. The
882 value is in seconds.
883
884 Note that this random offset is also applied on the first SSSD
885 start which delays the first sudo rules refresh. This prolongs the
886 time when the sudo rules are not available for use.
887
888 You can disable this offset by setting the value to 0.
889
890 Default: 0 (disabled)
891
892 ldap_sudo_use_host_filter (boolean)
893 If true, SSSD will download only rules that are applicable to this
894 machine (using the IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses and
895 hostnames).
896
897 Default: true
898
899 ldap_sudo_hostnames (string)
900 Space separated list of hostnames or fully qualified domain names
901 that should be used to filter the rules.
902
903 If this option is empty, SSSD will try to discover the hostname and
904 the fully qualified domain name automatically.
905
906 If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no
907 effect.
908
909 Default: not specified
910
911 ldap_sudo_ip (string)
912 Space separated list of IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses that
913 should be used to filter the rules.
914
915 If this option is empty, SSSD will try to discover the addresses
916 automatically.
917
918 If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no
919 effect.
920
921 Default: not specified
922
923 ldap_sudo_include_netgroups (boolean)
924 If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a netgroup
925 in sudoHost attribute.
926
927 If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no
928 effect.
929
930 Default: true
931
932 ldap_sudo_include_regexp (boolean)
933 If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a wildcard
934 in sudoHost attribute.
935
936 If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no
937 effect.
938
939 Note
940 Using wildcard is an operation that is very costly to evaluate
941 on the LDAP server side!
942 Default: false
943
944 This manual page only describes attribute name mapping. For detailed
945 explanation of sudo related attribute semantics, see sudoers.ldap(5)
946
948 Some of the defaults for the parameters below are dependent on the LDAP
949 schema.
950
951 ldap_autofs_map_master_name (string)
952 The name of the automount master map in LDAP.
953
954 Default: auto.master
955
956 ldap_autofs_map_object_class (string)
957 The object class of an automount map entry in LDAP.
958
959 Default: nisMap (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise
960 automountMap
961
962 ldap_autofs_map_name (string)
963 The name of an automount map entry in LDAP.
964
965 Default: nisMapName (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise
966 automountMapName
967
968 ldap_autofs_entry_object_class (string)
969 The object class of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually
970 corresponds to a mount point.
971
972 Default: nisObject (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise
973 automount
974
975 ldap_autofs_entry_key (string)
976 The key of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually
977 corresponds to a mount point.
978
979 Default: cn (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise automountKey
980
981 ldap_autofs_entry_value (string)
982 The key of an automount entry in LDAP. The entry usually
983 corresponds to a mount point.
984
985 Default: nisMapEntry (rfc2307, autofs_provider=ad), otherwise
986 automountInformation
987
988 Please note that the automounter only reads the master map on startup,
989 so if any autofs-related changes are made to the sssd.conf, you
990 typically also need to restart the automounter daemon after restarting
991 the SSSD.
992
994 These options are supported by LDAP domains, but they should be used
995 with caution. Please include them in your configuration only if you
996 know what you are doing.

1129
1131 The failover feature allows back ends to automatically switch to a
1132 different server if the current server fails.
1133
1134 Failover Syntax
1135 The list of servers is given as a comma-separated list; any number of
1136 spaces is allowed around the comma. The servers are listed in order of
1137 preference. The list can contain any number of servers.
1138
1139 For each failover-enabled config option, two variants exist: primary
1140 and backup. The idea is that servers in the primary list are preferred
1141 and backup servers are only searched if no primary servers can be
1142 reached. If a backup server is selected, a timeout of 31 seconds is
1143 set. After this timeout SSSD will periodically try to reconnect to one
1144 of the primary servers. If it succeeds, it will replace the current
1145 active (backup) server.
1146
1147 The Failover Mechanism
1148 The failover mechanism distinguishes between a machine and a service.
1149 The back end first tries to resolve the hostname of a given machine; if
1150 this resolution attempt fails, the machine is considered offline. No
1151 further attempts are made to connect to this machine for any other
1152 service. If the resolution attempt succeeds, the back end tries to
1153 connect to a service on this machine. If the service connection attempt
1154 fails, then only this particular service is considered offline and the
1155 back end automatically switches over to the next service. The machine
1156 is still considered online and might still be tried for another
1157 service.
1158
1159 Further connection attempts are made to machines or services marked as
1160 offline after a specified period of time; this is currently hard coded
1161 to 30 seconds.
1162
1163 If there are no more machines to try, the back end as a whole switches
1164 to offline mode, and then attempts to reconnect every 30 seconds.
1165
1166 Failover time outs and tuning
1167 Resolving a server to connect to can be as simple as running a single
1168 DNS query or can involve several steps, such as finding the correct
1169 site or trying out multiple host names in case some of the configured
1170 servers are not reachable. The more complex scenarios can take some
1171 time and SSSD needs to balance between providing enough time to finish
1172 the resolution process but on the other hand, not trying for too long
1173 before falling back to offline mode. If the SSSD debug logs show that
1174 the server resolution is timing out before a live server is contacted,
1175 you can consider changing the time outs.
1176
1177 This section lists the available tunables. Please refer to their
1178 description in the sssd.conf(5), manual page.
1179
1180 dns_resolver_server_timeout
1181 Time in milliseconds that sets how long would SSSD talk to a single
1182 DNS server before trying next one.
1183
1184 Default: 1000
1185
1186 dns_resolver_op_timeout
1187 Time in seconds to tell how long would SSSD try to resolve single
1188 DNS query (e.g. resolution of a hostname or an SRV record) before
1189 trying the next hostname or discovery domain.
1190
1191 Default: 3
1192
1193 dns_resolver_timeout
1194 How long would SSSD try to resolve a failover service. This service
1195 resolution internally might include several steps, such as
1196 resolving DNS SRV queries or locating the site.
1197
1198 Default: 6
1199
1200 For LDAP-based providers, the resolve operation is performed as part of
1201 an LDAP connection operation. Therefore, also the “ldap_opt_timeout”
1202 timeout should be set to a larger value than “dns_resolver_timeout”
1203 which in turn should be set to a larger value than
1204 “dns_resolver_op_timeout” which should be larger than
1205 “dns_resolver_server_timeout”.
1206
1208 The service discovery feature allows back ends to automatically find
1209 the appropriate servers to connect to using a special DNS query. This
1210 feature is not supported for backup servers.
1211
1212 Configuration
1213 If no servers are specified, the back end automatically uses service
1214 discovery to try to find a server. Optionally, the user may choose to
1215 use both fixed server addresses and service discovery by inserting a
1216 special keyword, “_srv_”, in the list of servers. The order of
1217 preference is maintained. This feature is useful if, for example, the
1218 user prefers to use service discovery whenever possible, and fall back
1219 to a specific server when no servers can be discovered using DNS.
1220
1221 The domain name
1222 Please refer to the “dns_discovery_domain” parameter in the
1223 sssd.conf(5) manual page for more details.
1224
1225 The protocol
1226 The queries usually specify _tcp as the protocol. Exceptions are
1227 documented in respective option description.
1228
1229 See Also
1230 For more information on the service discovery mechanism, refer to RFC
1231 2782.
1232
1234 The ID-mapping feature allows SSSD to act as a client of Active
1235 Directory without requiring administrators to extend user attributes to
1236 support POSIX attributes for user and group identifiers.
1237
1238 NOTE: When ID-mapping is enabled, the uidNumber and gidNumber
1239 attributes are ignored. This is to avoid the possibility of conflicts
1240 between automatically-assigned and manually-assigned values. If you
1241 need to use manually-assigned values, ALL values must be
1242 manually-assigned.
1243
1244 Please note that changing the ID mapping related configuration options
1245 will cause user and group IDs to change. At the moment, SSSD does not
1246 support changing IDs, so the SSSD database must be removed. Because
1247 cached passwords are also stored in the database, removing the database
1248 should only be performed while the authentication servers are
1249 reachable, otherwise users might get locked out. In order to cache the
1250 password, an authentication must be performed. It is not sufficient to
1251 use sss_cache(8) to remove the database, rather the process consists
1252 of:
1253
1254 • Making sure the remote servers are reachable
1255
1256 • Stopping the SSSD service
1257
1258 • Removing the database
1259
1260 • Starting the SSSD service
1261
1262 Moreover, as the change of IDs might necessitate the adjustment of
1263 other system properties such as file and directory ownership, it's
1264 advisable to plan ahead and test the ID mapping configuration
1265 thoroughly.
1266
1267 Mapping Algorithm
1268 Active Directory provides an objectSID for every user and group object
1269 in the directory. This objectSID can be broken up into components that
1270 represent the Active Directory domain identity and the relative
1271 identifier (RID) of the user or group object.
1272
1273 The SSSD ID-mapping algorithm takes a range of available UIDs and
1274 divides it into equally-sized component sections - called "slices"-.
1275 Each slice represents the space available to an Active Directory
1276 domain.
1277
1278 When a user or group entry for a particular domain is encountered for
1279 the first time, the SSSD allocates one of the available slices for that
1280 domain. In order to make this slice-assignment repeatable on different
1281 client machines, we select the slice based on the following algorithm:
1282
1283 The SID string is passed through the murmurhash3 algorithm to convert
1284 it to a 32-bit hashed value. We then take the modulus of this value
1285 with the total number of available slices to pick the slice.
1286
1287 NOTE: It is possible to encounter collisions in the hash and subsequent
1288 modulus. In these situations, we will select the next available slice,
1289 but it may not be possible to reproduce the same exact set of slices on
1290 other machines (since the order that they are encountered will
1291 determine their slice). In this situation, it is recommended to either
1292 switch to using explicit POSIX attributes in Active Directory
1293 (disabling ID-mapping) or configure a default domain to guarantee that
1294 at least one is always consistent. See “Configuration” for details.
1295
1296 Configuration
1297 Minimum configuration (in the “[domain/DOMAINNAME]” section):
1298
1299 ldap_id_mapping = True
1300 ldap_schema = ad
1301
1302 The default configuration results in configuring 10,000 slices, each
1303 capable of holding up to 200,000 IDs, starting from 200,000 and going
1304 up to 2,000,200,000. This should be sufficient for most deployments.
1305
1306 Advanced Configuration
1307 ldap_idmap_range_min (integer)
1308 Specifies the lower bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for
1309 mapping Active Directory user and group SIDs.
1310
1311 NOTE: This option is different from “min_id” in that “min_id”
1312 acts to filter the output of requests to this domain, whereas
1313 this option controls the range of ID assignment. This is a
1314 subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
1315 have “min_id” be less-than or equal to “ldap_idmap_range_min”
1316
1317 Default: 200000
1318
1319 ldap_idmap_range_max (integer)
1320 Specifies the upper bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for
1321 mapping Active Directory user and group SIDs.
1322
1323 NOTE: This option is different from “max_id” in that “max_id”
1324 acts to filter the output of requests to this domain, whereas
1325 this option controls the range of ID assignment. This is a
1326 subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
1327 have “max_id” be greater-than or equal to
1328 “ldap_idmap_range_max”
1329
1330 Default: 2000200000
1331
1332 ldap_idmap_range_size (integer)
1333 Specifies the number of IDs available for each slice. If the
1334 range size does not divide evenly into the min and max values,
1335 it will create as many complete slices as it can.
1336
1337 NOTE: The value of this option must be at least as large as the
1338 highest user RID planned for use on the Active Directory
1339 server. User lookups and login will fail for any user whose RID
1340 is greater than this value.
1341
1342 For example, if your most recently-added Active Directory user
1343 has objectSid=S-1-5-21-2153326666-2176343378-3404031434-1107,
1344 “ldap_idmap_range_size” must be at least 1108 as range size is
1345 equal to maximal SID minus minimal SID plus one (e.g. 1108 =
1346 1107 - 0 + 1).
1347
1348 It is important to plan ahead for future expansion, as changing
1349 this value will result in changing all of the ID mappings on
1350 the system, leading to users with different local IDs than they
1351 previously had.
1352
1353 Default: 200000
1354
1355 ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid (string)
1356 Specify the domain SID of the default domain. This will
1357 guarantee that this domain will always be assigned to slice
1358 zero in the ID map, bypassing the murmurhash algorithm
1359 described above.
1360
1361 Default: not set
1362
1363 ldap_idmap_default_domain (string)
1364 Specify the name of the default domain.
1365
1366 Default: not set
1367
1368 ldap_idmap_autorid_compat (boolean)
1369 Changes the behavior of the ID-mapping algorithm to behave more
1370 similarly to winbind's “idmap_autorid” algorithm.
1371
1372 When this option is configured, domains will be allocated
1373 starting with slice zero and increasing monatomically with each
1374 additional domain.
1375
1376 NOTE: This algorithm is non-deterministic (it depends on the
1377 order that users and groups are requested). If this mode is
1378 required for compatibility with machines running winbind, it is
1379 recommended to also use the “ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid”
1380 option to guarantee that at least one domain is consistently
1381 allocated to slice zero.
1382
1383 Default: False
1384
1385 ldap_idmap_helper_table_size (integer)
1386 Maximal number of secondary slices that is tried when
1387 performing mapping from UNIX id to SID.
1388
1389 Note: Additional secondary slices might be generated when SID
1390 is being mapped to UNIX id and RID part of SID is out of range
1391 for secondary slices generated so far. If value of
1392 ldap_idmap_helper_table_size is equal to 0 then no additional
1393 secondary slices are generated.
1394
1395 Default: 10
1396
1397 Well-Known SIDs
1398 SSSD supports to look up the names of Well-Known SIDs, i.e. SIDs with a
1399 special hardcoded meaning. Since the generic users and groups related
1400 to those Well-Known SIDs have no equivalent in a Linux/UNIX environment
1401 no POSIX IDs are available for those objects.
1402
1403 The SID name space is organized in authorities which can be seen as
1404 different domains. The authorities for the Well-Known SIDs are
1405
1406 • Null Authority
1407
1408 • World Authority
1409
1410 • Local Authority
1411
1412 • Creator Authority
1413
1414 • NT Authority
1415
1416 • Built-in
1417
1418 The capitalized version of these names are used as domain names when
1419 returning the fully qualified name of a Well-Known SID.
1420
1421 Since some utilities allow to modify SID based access control
1422 information with the help of a name instead of using the SID directly
1423 SSSD supports to look up the SID by the name as well. To avoid
1424 collisions only the fully qualified names can be used to look up
1425 Well-Known SIDs. As a result the domain names “NULL AUTHORITY”, “WORLD
1426 AUTHORITY”, “ LOCAL AUTHORITY”, “CREATOR AUTHORITY”, “NT AUTHORITY” and
1427 “BUILTIN” should not be used as domain names in sssd.conf.
1428
1430 The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly configured and
1431 LDAP is set to one of the domains in the [domains] section.
1432
1433 [domain/LDAP]
1434 id_provider = ldap
1435 auth_provider = ldap
1436 ldap_uri = ldap://ldap.mydomain.org
1437 ldap_search_base = dc=mydomain,dc=org
1438 ldap_tls_reqcert = demand
1439 cache_credentials = true
1440
1441
1443 The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly configured and to
1444 use the ldap_access_order=lockout.
1445
1446 [domain/LDAP]
1447 id_provider = ldap
1448 auth_provider = ldap
1449 access_provider = ldap
1450 ldap_access_order = lockout
1451 ldap_pwdlockout_dn = cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=mydomain,dc=org
1452 ldap_uri = ldap://ldap.mydomain.org
1453 ldap_search_base = dc=mydomain,dc=org
1454 ldap_tls_reqcert = demand
1455 cache_credentials = true
