<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>
<para>
By default, the AD provider will map UID and GID values from the
objectSID parameter in Active Directory. For details on this, see
the <quote>ID MAPPING</quote> section below. If you want to
disable ID mapping and instead rely on POSIX attributes defined in
Active Directory, you should set
<programlisting>
ldap_id_mapping = False
</programlisting>
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id='file-format'>
<title>CONFIGURATION OPTIONS</title>
<para>Refer to the section <quote>DOMAIN SECTIONS</quote> of the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> manual page for details on the configuration of an SSSD domain.
<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, ad_backup_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 <quote>SERVICE DISCOVERY</quote> section.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<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.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>override_homedir (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Override the user's home directory. You
can either provide an absolute value or a
template. In the template, the following
sequences are substituted:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>%u</term>
<listitem><para>login name</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>%U</term>
<listitem><para>UID number</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>%d</term>
<listitem><para>domain name</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>%f</term>
<listitem><para>fully qualified user name (user@domain)</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>%%</term>
<listitem><para>a literal '%'</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</para>
<para>
This option can also be set per-domain.
</para>
<para>
example:
<programlisting>
override_homedir = /home/%u
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Default: Not set (SSSD will use the value
retrieved from LDAP)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>fallback_homedir (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Set a default template for a user's home directory
if one is not specified explicitly by the domain's
data provider.
</para>
<para>
The available values for this option are the same
as for override_homedir.
</para>
<para>
example:
<programlisting>
fallback_homedir = /home/%u
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Default: not set (no substitution for unset home
directories)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>default_shell</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The default shell to use if the provider does not
return one during lookup. This option supersedes
any other shell options if it takes effect and can
be set either in the [nss] section or per-domain.
</para>
<para>
Default: not set (Return NULL if no shell is
specified and rely on libc to substitute something
sensible when necessary, usually /bin/sh)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</para>

<title>EXAMPLE</title>
<para>
The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly
configured and example.com is one of the domains in the
<replaceable>[sssd]</replaceable> section. This example shows only
the AD provider-specific options.
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>
