<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
This manual page describes the configuration of the AD provider
for
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>.
For a detailed syntax reference, refer to the <quote>FILE FORMAT</quote> section of the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> manual page.
</para>
<para>
The AD provider is a back end used to connect to an Active
Directory server. This provider requires that the machine be
joined to the AD domain and a keytab is available.
</para>
<para>
The AD provider supports connecting to Active Directory 2008 R2
or later. Earlier versions may work, but are unsupported.
</para>
<para>
The AD provider accepts the same options used by the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd-ldap</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> identity provider and the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd-krb5</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> authentication provider with some exceptions described
below.
</para>
<para>
However, it is neither necessary nor recommended to set these
options. The AD provider can also be used as an access and chpass
provider. No configuration of the access provider is required on
the client side.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id='file-format'>
<title>CONFIGURATION OPTIONS</title>
<para>Refer to the section <quote>DOMAIN SECTIONS</quote> of the

<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>ad_domain (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specifies the name of the Active Directory domain.
This is optional. If not provided, the
configuration domain name is used.
</para>
<para>
For proper operation, this option should be
specified as the lower-case version of the long
version of the Active Directory domain.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>ad_server (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The comma-separated list of IP addresses or
hostnames of the AD servers to which SSSD should
connect in order of preference. For more
information on failover and server redundancy, see
the <quote>FAILOVER</quote> section.
This is optional if autodiscovery is enabled.
For more information on service discovery, refer
to the the <quote>SERVICE DISCOVERY</quote> section.
</para>
</listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term>ad_hostname (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Optional. May be set on machines where the
hostname(5) does not reflect the fully qualified
name used in the Active Directory domain to
identify this host.
</para>
<para>
This field is used to determine the host principal
in use in the keytab. It must match the hostname
for which the keytab was issued.
