sssd-ldap 5 File Formats and Conventions sssd-ldap the configuration file for SSSD This manual page describes the configuration of LDAP domains for sssd 8 . Refer to the FILE FORMAT section of the sssd.conf 5 manual page for detailed syntax information. You can configure SSSD to use more than one LDAP domain. LDAP back end supports id, auth, access and chpass providers. If you want to authenticate against an LDAP server either TLS/SSL or LDAPS is required. sssd does not support authentication over an unencrypted channel. If the LDAP server is used only as an identity provider, an encrypted channel is not needed. Please refer to ldap_access_filter config option for more information about using LDAP as an access provider. All of the common configuration options that apply to SSSD domains also apply to LDAP domains. Refer to the DOMAIN SECTIONS section of the sssd.conf 5 manual page for full details. ldap_uri (string) Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to which SSSD should connect in the order of preference. Refer to the FAILOVER section for more information on failover and server redundancy. If not specified, service discovery is enabled. For more information, refer to the SERVICE DISCOVERY section. The format of the URI must match the format defined in RFC 2732: ldap[s]://<host>[:port] For explicit IPv6 addresses, <host> must be enclosed in brackets [] example: ldap://[fc00::126:25]:389 ldap_chpass_uri (string) Specifies the comma-separated list of URIs of the LDAP servers to which SSSD should connect in the order of preference to change the password of a user. Refer to the FAILOVER section for more information on failover and server redundancy. To enable service discovery ldap_chpass_dns_service_name must be set. Default: empty, i.e. ldap_uri is used. ldap_search_base (string) The default base DN to use for performing LDAP user operations. Starting with SSSD 1.7.0, SSSD supports multiple search bases using the syntax: search_base[?scope?[filter][?search_base?scope?[filter]]*] The scope can be one of "base", "onelevel" or "subtree". The filter must be a valid LDAP search filter as specified by http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt Examples: ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com (which is equivalent to) ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com?subtree? ldap_search_base = cn=host_specific,dc=example,dc=com?subtree?(host=thishost)?dc=example.com?subtree? Note: It is unsupported to have multiple search bases which reference identically-named objects (for example, groups with the same name in two different search bases). This will lead to unpredictable behavior on client machines. Default: If not set, the value of the defaultNamingContext or namingContexts attribute from the RootDSE of the LDAP server is used. If defaultNamingContext does not exists or has an empty value namingContexts is used. The namingContexts attribute must have a single value with the DN of the search base of the LDAP server to make this work. Multiple values are are not supported. ldap_schema (string) Specifies the Schema Type in use on the target LDAP server. Depending on the selected schema, the default attribute names retrieved from the servers may vary. The way that some attributes are handled may also differ. Four schema types are currently supported: rfc2307 rfc2307bis IPA AD The main difference between these schema types is how group memberships are recorded in the server. With rfc2307, group members are listed by name in the memberUid attribute. With rfc2307bis and IPA, group members are listed by DN and stored in the member attribute. The AD schema type sets the attributes to correspond with Active Directory 2008r2 values. Default: rfc2307 ldap_default_bind_dn (string) The default bind DN to use for performing LDAP operations. ldap_default_authtok_type (string) The type of the authentication token of the default bind DN.

Default: loginDisabled ldap_user_nds_login_expiration_time (string) When using ldap_account_expire_policy=nds, this attribute determines until which date access is granted. Default: loginDisabled ldap_user_nds_login_allowed_time_map (string) When using ldap_account_expire_policy=nds, this attribute determines the hours of a day in a week when access is granted. Default: loginAllowedTimeMap ldap_user_principal (string) The LDAP attribute that contains the user's Kerberos User Principal Name (UPN). Default: krbPrincipalName ldap_user_ssh_public_key (string) The LDAP attribute that contains the user's SSH public keys. ldap_force_upper_case_realm (boolean) Some directory servers, for example Active Directory, might deliver the realm part of the UPN in lower case, which might cause the authentication to fail. Set this option to a non-zero value if you want to use an upper-case realm. Default: false ldap_enumeration_refresh_timeout (integer) Specifies how many seconds SSSD has to wait before refreshing its cache of enumerated records. Default: 300 ldap_purge_cache_timeout (integer) Determine how often to check the cache for inactive entries (such as groups with no members and users who have never logged in) and remove them to save space. Setting this option to zero will disable the cache cleanup operation. Default: 10800 (12 hours) ldap_user_fullname (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the user's full name. Default: cn ldap_user_member_of (string) The LDAP attribute that lists the user's group memberships. Default: memberOf ldap_user_authorized_service (string) If access_provider=ldap and ldap_access_order=authorized_service, SSSD will use the presence of the authorizedService attribute in the user's LDAP entry to determine access privilege. An explicit deny (!svc) is resolved first. Second, SSSD searches for explicit allow (svc) and finally for allow_all (*). Default: authorizedService ldap_user_authorized_host (string) If access_provider=ldap and ldap_access_order=host, SSSD will use the presence of the host attribute in the user's LDAP entry to determine access privilege. An explicit deny (!host) is resolved first. Second, SSSD searches for explicit allow (host) and finally for allow_all (*). Default: host ldap_group_object_class (string) The object class of a group entry in LDAP. Default: posixGroup ldap_group_name (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the group name. Default: cn ldap_group_gid_number (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the group's id.

Default: objectSid for ActiveDirectory, not set for other servers. ldap_group_modify_timestamp (string) The LDAP attribute that contains timestamp of the last modification of the parent object. Default: modifyTimestamp ldap_group_nesting_level (integer) If ldap_schema is set to a schema format that supports nested groups (e.g. RFC2307bis), then this option controls how many levels of nesting SSSD will follow. This option has no effect on the RFC2307 schema. Default: 2 ldap_groups_use_matching_rule_in_chain This option tells SSSD to take advantage of an Active Directory-specific feature which may speed up group lookup operations on deployments with complex or deep nested groups. In most common cases, it is best to leave this option disabled. It generally only provides a performance increase on very complex nestings. If this option is enabled, SSSD will use it if it detects that the server supports it during initial connection. So "True" here essentially means "auto-detect". Note: This feature is currently known to work only with Active Directory 2008 R1 and later. See MSDN(TM) documentation for more details. Default: False ldap_initgroups_use_matching_rule_in_chain This option tells SSSD to take advantage of an Active Directory-specific feature which will speed up initgroups operations (most notably when dealing with complex or deep nested groups). If this option is enabled, SSSD will use it if it detects that the server supports it during initial connection. So "True" here essentially means "auto-detect". Note: This feature is currently known to work only with Active Directory 2008 R1 and later. See MSDN(TM) documentation for more details. Default: True ldap_netgroup_object_class (string) The object class of a netgroup entry in LDAP. In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_object_class should be used instead. Default: nisNetgroup ldap_netgroup_name (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the netgroup name. In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_name should be used instead. Default: cn ldap_netgroup_member (string) The LDAP attribute that contains the names of the netgroup's members. In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_member should be used instead. Default: memberNisNetgroup ldap_netgroup_triple (string) The LDAP attribute that contains the (host, user, domain) netgroup triples. This option is not available in IPA provider. Default: nisNetgroupTriple ldap_netgroup_uuid (string) The LDAP attribute that contains the UUID/GUID of an LDAP netgroup object. In IPA provider, ipa_netgroup_uuid should be used instead. Default: nsUniqueId ldap_netgroup_modify_timestamp (string) The LDAP attribute that contains timestamp of the last modification of the parent object. This option is not available in IPA provider. Default: modifyTimestamp ldap_service_object_class (string) The object class of a service entry in LDAP.

Default: ipServiceProtocol ldap_service_search_base (string) An optional base DN to restrict service searches to a specific subtree. See ldap_search_base for information about configuring multiple search bases. Default: the value of ldap_search_base ldap_search_timeout (integer) Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches are allowed to run before they are cancelled and cached results are returned (and offline mode is entered) Note: this option is subject to change in future versions of the SSSD. It will likely be replaced at some point by a series of timeouts for specific lookup types. Default: 6 ldap_enumeration_search_timeout (integer) Specifies the timeout (in seconds) that ldap searches for user and group enumerations are allowed to run before they are cancelled and cached results are returned (and offline mode is entered) Default: 60 ldap_network_timeout (integer) Specifies the timeout (in seconds) after which the poll 2 / select 2 following a connect 2 returns in case of no activity. Default: 6 ldap_opt_timeout (integer) Specifies a timeout (in seconds) after which calls to synchronous LDAP APIs will abort if no response is received. Also controls the timeout when communicating with the KDC in case of SASL bind. Default: 6 ldap_connection_expire_timeout (integer) Specifies a timeout (in seconds) that a connection to an LDAP server will be maintained. After this time, the connection will be re-established. If used in parallel with SASL/GSSAPI, the sooner of the two values (this value vs. the TGT lifetime) will be used. Default: 900 (15 minutes) ldap_page_size (integer) Specify the number of records to retrieve from LDAP in a single request. Some LDAP servers enforce a maximum limit per-request. Default: 1000 ldap_disable_paging (boolean) Disable the LDAP paging control. This option should be used if the LDAP server reports that it supports the LDAP paging control in its RootDSE but it is not enabled or does not behave properly. Example: OpenLDAP servers with the paging control module installed on the server but not enabled will report it in the RootDSE but be unable to use it. Example: 389 DS has a bug where it can only support a one paging control at a time on a single connection. On busy clients, this can result in some requests being denied. Default: False ldap_sasl_minssf (integer) When communicating with an LDAP server using SASL, specify the minimum security level necessary to establish the connection. The values of this option are defined by OpenLDAP. Default: Use the system default (usually specified by ldap.conf) ldap_deref_threshold (integer) Specify the number of group members that must be missing from the internal cache in order to trigger a dereference lookup. If less members are missing, they are looked up individually. You can turn off dereference lookups completely by setting the value to 0. A dereference lookup is a means of fetching all group members in a single LDAP call. Different LDAP servers may implement different dereference methods. The currently supported servers are 389/RHDS, OpenLDAP and Active Directory. Note: If any of the search bases specifies a search filter, then the dereference lookup performance enhancement will be disabled regardless of this setting. Default: 10 ldap_tls_reqcert (string) Specifies what checks to perform on server certificates in a TLS session, if any. It can be specified as one of the following values: never = The client will not request or check any server certificate. allow = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided, it will be ignored and the session proceeds normally. try = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided, the session is immediately terminated. demand = The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided, or a bad certificate is provided, the session is immediately terminated. hard = Same as demand Default: hard ldap_tls_cacert (string) Specifies the file that contains certificates for all of the Certificate Authorities that sssd will recognize. Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf ldap_tls_cacertdir (string) Specifies the path of a directory that contains Certificate Authority certificates in separate individual files. Typically the file names need to be the hash of the certificate followed by '.0'. If available, cacertdir_rehash can be used to create the correct names. Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf ldap_tls_cert (string) Specifies the file that contains the certificate for the client's key. Default: not set ldap_tls_key (string) Specifies the file that contains the client's key. Default: not set ldap_tls_cipher_suite (string) Specifies acceptable cipher suites. Typically this is a colon sperated list. See ldap.conf 5 for format. Default: use OpenLDAP defaults, typically in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf ldap_id_use_start_tls (boolean) Specifies that the id_provider connection must also use tls to protect the channel. Default: false ldap_id_mapping (boolean) Specifies that SSSD should attempt to map user and group IDs from the ldap_user_objectsid and ldap_group_objectsid attributes instead of relying on ldap_user_uid_number and ldap_group_gid_number. Currently this feature supports only ActiveDirectory objectSID mapping. Default: false ldap_sasl_mech (string) Specify the SASL mechanism to use. Currently only GSSAPI is tested and supported. Default: not set ldap_sasl_authid (string) Specify the SASL authorization id to use. When GSSAPI is used, this represents the Kerberos principal used for authentication to the directory. Default: host/machine.fqdn@REALM ldap_sasl_canonicalize (boolean) If set to true, the LDAP library would perform a reverse lookup to canonicalize the host name during a SASL bind. Default: false; ldap_krb5_keytab (string) Specify the keytab to use when using SASL/GSSAPI. Default: System keytab, normally /etc/krb5.keytab ldap_krb5_init_creds (boolean) Specifies that the id_provider should init Kerberos credentials (TGT). This action is performed only if SASL is used and the mechanism selected is GSSAPI. Default: true ldap_krb5_ticket_lifetime (integer) Specifies the lifetime in seconds of the TGT if GSSAPI is used. Default: 86400 (24 hours) krb5_server (string) Specifies the comma-separated list of IP addresses or hostnames of the Kerberos servers to which SSSD should connect in the order of preference. For more information on failover and server redundancy, see the FAILOVER section. An optional port number (preceded by a colon) may be appended to the addresses or hostnames. If empty, service discovery is enabled - for more information, refer to the SERVICE DISCOVERY section. When using service discovery for KDC or kpasswd servers, SSSD first searches for DNS entries that specify _udp as the protocol and falls back to _tcp if none are found. This option was named krb5_kdcip in earlier releases of SSSD. While the legacy name is recognized for the time being, users are advised to migrate their config files to use krb5_server instead. krb5_realm (string) Specify the Kerberos REALM (for SASL/GSSAPI auth). Default: System defaults, see /etc/krb5.conf krb5_canonicalize (boolean) Specifies if the host principal should be canonicalized when connecting to LDAP server. This feature is available with MIT Kerberos >= 1.7 Default: false ldap_pwd_policy (string) Select the policy to evaluate the password expiration on the client side. The following values are allowed: none - No evaluation on the client side. This option cannot disable server-side password policies. shadow - Use shadow 5 style attributes to evaluate if the password has expired. mit_kerberos - Use the attributes used by MIT Kerberos to determine if the password has expired. Use chpass_provider=krb5 to update these attributes when the password is changed. Default: none ldap_referrals (boolean) Specifies whether automatic referral chasing should be enabled. Please note that sssd only supports referral chasing when it is compiled with OpenLDAP version 2.4.13 or higher. Chasing referrals may incur a performance penalty in environments that use them heavily, a notable example is Microsoft Active Directory. If your setup does not in fact require the use of referrals, setting this option to false might bring a noticeable performance improvement. Default: true ldap_dns_service_name (string) Specifies the service name to use when service discovery is enabled. Default: ldap ldap_chpass_dns_service_name (string) Specifies the service name to use to find an LDAP server which allows password changes when service discovery is enabled. Default: not set, i.e. service discovery is disabled ldap_access_filter (string) If using access_provider = ldap, this option is mandatory. It specifies an LDAP search filter criteria that must be met for the user to be granted access on this host. If access_provider = ldap and this option is not set, it will result in all users being denied access. Use access_provider = permit to change this default behavior. Example: access_provider = ldap ldap_access_filter = memberOf=cn=allowedusers,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com This example means that access to this host is restricted to members of the "allowedusers" group in ldap. Offline caching for this feature is limited to determining whether the user's last online login was granted access permission. If they were granted access during their last login, they will continue to be granted access while offline and vice-versa. Default: Empty ldap_account_expire_policy (string) With this option a client side evaluation of access control attributes can be enabled. Please note that it is always recommended to use server side access control, i.e. the LDAP server should deny the bind request with a suitable error code even if the password is correct. The following values are allowed: shadow: use the value of ldap_user_shadow_expire to determine if the account is expired. ad: use the value of the 32bit field ldap_user_ad_user_account_control and allow access if the second bit is not set. If the attribute is missing access is granted. Also the expiration time of the account is checked. rhds, ipa, 389ds: use the value of ldap_ns_account_lock to check if access is allowed or not. nds: the values of ldap_user_nds_login_allowed_time_map, ldap_user_nds_login_disabled and ldap_user_nds_login_expiration_time are used to check if access is allowed. If both attributes are missing access is granted. Default: Empty ldap_access_order (string) Comma separated list of access control options. Allowed values are: filter: use ldap_access_filter expire: use ldap_account_expire_policy authorized_service: use the authorizedService attribute to determine access host: use the host attribute to determine access Default: filter Please note that it is a configuration error if a value is used more than once. ldap_deref (string) Specifies how alias dereferencing is done when performing a search. The following options are allowed: never: Aliases are never dereferenced. searching: Aliases are dereferenced in subordinates of the base object, but not in locating the base object of the search. finding: Aliases are only dereferenced when locating the base object of the search. always: Aliases are dereferenced both in searching and in locating the base object of the search. Default: Empty (this is handled as never by the LDAP client libraries) ldap_sudorule_object_class (string) The object class of a sudo rule entry in LDAP. Default: sudoRole ldap_sudorule_name (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the sudo rule name.

Default: sudoRunAsGroup ldap_sudorule_notbefore (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the start date/time for when the sudo rule is valid. Default: sudoNotBefore ldap_sudorule_notafter (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the expiration date/time, after which the sudo rule will no longer be valid. Default: sudoNotAfter ldap_sudorule_order (string) The LDAP attribute that corresponds to the ordering index of the rule. Default: sudoOrder ldap_sudo_full_refresh_interval (integer) How many seconds SSSD will wait between executing a full refresh of sudo rules (which downloads all rules that are stored on the server). The value must be greater than ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval Default: 21600 (6 hours) ldap_sudo_smart_refresh_interval (integer) How many seconds SSSD has to wait before executing a smart refresh of sudo rules (which downloads all rules that have USN higher than the highest USN of cached rules). If USN attributes are not supported by the server, the modifyTimestamp attribute is used instead. Default: 900 (15 minutes) ldap_sudo_use_host_filter (boolean) If true, SSSD will download only rules that are applicable to this machine (using the IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses and hostnames). Default: true ldap_sudo_hostnames (string) Space separated list of hostnames or fully qualified domain names that should be used to filter the rules. Note: autoconfiguration is not yet supported, therefore if this option is left empty then hostname matching will be disabled. If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect. Default: not specified ldap_sudo_ip (string) Space separated list of IPv4 or IPv6 host/network addresses that should be used to filter the rules. If this option is empty, SSSD will try to discover the addresses automatically. If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect. Default: not specified ldap_sudo_include_netgroups (boolean) If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a netgroup in sudoHost attribute. If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect. Default: true ldap_sudo_include_regexp (boolean) If true then SSSD will download every rule that contains a regular expression in sudoHost attribute. If ldap_sudo_use_host_filter is false then this option has no effect. Default: true This manual page only describes attribute name mapping. For detailed explanation of sudo related attribute semantics, see sudoers.ldap5 Please note that the default values correspond to the default schema which is RFC2307. ldap_autofs_map_object_class (string) The object class of an automount map entry in LDAP. Default: automountMap ldap_autofs_map_name (string) The name of an automount map entry in LDAP. Default: ou ldap_autofs_entry_object_class (string) The object class of an automount map entry in LDAP.

Default: automountInformation These options are supported by LDAP domains, but they should be used with caution. Please include them in your configuration only if you know what you are doing. ldap_netgroup_search_base (string) An optional base DN to restrict netgroup searches to a specific subtree. See ldap_search_base for information about configuring multiple search bases.
