SSSD Manual pagesSSSDThe SSSD upstream - http://fedorahosted.org/sssdpam_sss8pam_sssPAM module for SSSDpam_sss.soquietforward_passuse_first_passuse_authtokretry=NDESCRIPTIONpam_sss.so is the PAM interface to the System
Security Services daemon (SSSD). Errors and results are logged through
syslog(3) with the LOG_AUTHPRIV facility.OPTIONSSuppress log messages for unknown users.If is set the entered
password is put on the stack for other PAM modules to use.
The argument use_first_pass forces the module to use
a previous stacked modules password and will never prompt
the user - if no password is available or the password is
not appropriate, the user will be denied access.When password changing enforce the module to set the
new password to the one provided by a previously stacked
password module.If specified the user is asked another N times for a
password if authentication fails. Default is 0.Please note that this option might not work as
expected if the application calling PAM handles the user
dialog on its own. A typical example is
sshd with
.MODULE TYPES PROVIDEDAll module types (, ,
and ) are provided.
FILESIf a password reset by root fails, because the corresponding SSSD
provider does not support password resets, an individual message can be
displayed. This message can e.g. contain instructions about how to reset
a password.The message is read from the file
pam_sss_pw_reset_message.LOC where LOC stands for a
locale string returned by setlocale3. If there is no matching file the content of
pam_sss_pw_reset_message.txt is displayed. Root
must be the owner of the files and only root may have read and write
permissions while all other users must have only read
permissions.These files are searched in the directory
/etc/sssd/customize/DOMAIN_NAME/. If no matching
file is present a generic message is displayed.
