<title>THE LOCAL DOMAIN</title>
<para>
In order to function correctly, a domain with
<quote>id_provider=local</quote> must be created and the SSSD must
be running.
</para>
<para>
The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead
of traditional UNIX users in cases where the group nesting (see
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sss_groupadd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>) is needed. The local users are also useful for
testing and development of the SSSD without having to deploy
a full remote server. The <command>sss_user*</command> and
<command>sss_group*</command> tools use a local LDB storage to
store users and groups.
