<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
This manual page describes the configuration of the Kerberos
5 authentication backend for
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>.
For a detailed syntax reference, please refer to the <quote>FILE FORMAT</quote> section of the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> manual page
</para>
<para>
The Kerberos 5 authentication backend contains auth and chpass
providers. It must be paired with identity provider in
order to function properly (for example, id_provider = ldap). Some
information required by the Kerberos 5 authentication backend must
be provided by the identity provider, such as the user's Kerberos
Principal Name (UPN). The configuration of the identity provider
should have an entry to specify the UPN. Please refer to the man
page for the applicable identity provider for details on how to
configure this.
</para>
<para>
In the case where the UPN is not available in the identity backend
<command>sssd</command> will construct a UPN using the format
<replaceable>username</replaceable>@<replaceable>krb5_realm</replaceable>.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id='file-format'>
<title>CONFIGURATION OPTIONS</title>
<para>
If the auth-module krb5 is used in a SSSD domain, the following
options must be used. See the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> manual page, section <quote>DOMAIN SECTIONS</quote>
for details on the configuration of a SSSD domain.
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>krb5_kdcip (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specifies the 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 <quote>FAILOVER</quote> 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
<quote>SERVICE DISCOVERY</quote> section.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>krb5_realm (string)</term>
<listitem>

<term>krb5_kpasswd (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
If the change password service is not running on the
KDC alternative servers can be defined here. An
optional port number (preceded by a colon) may be
appended to the addresses or hostnames.
</para>
<para>
For more information on failover and server
redundancy, see the <quote>FAILOVER</quote> section.
Please note that even if there are no more kpasswd
servers to try the back end is not switch to offline

be used here, too, except %d and %P. If the
directory does not exist it will be created. If %u,
%U, %p or %h are used a private directory belonging
to the user is created. Otherwise a public directory
with restricted deletion flag (aka sticky bit, see
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>chmod</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>1</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> for details) is created.
