square brackets and continues until the next section begins. An
example of section with single and multi-valued parameters:

Individual pieces of SSSD functionality are provided by special
SSSD services that are started and stopped together with SSSD.
The services are managed by a special service frequently called
<quote>monitor</quote>. The <quote>[sssd]</quote> section is used
to configure the monitor as well as some other important options
like the identity domains.

<listitem>
<para>
A domain is a database containing user
information. SSSD can use more domains
at the same time, but at least one
must be configured or SSSD won't start.
This parameter described the list of domains
in the order you want them to be queried.
A domain name should only consist of alphanumeric
ASCII characters, dashes and underscores.

<varlistentry>
<term>try_inotify (boolean)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
SSSD monitors the state of resolv.conf to
identify when it needs to update its internal
DNS resolver. By default, we will attempt to
use inotify for this, and will fall back to
polling resolv.conf every five seconds if
inotify cannot be used.
</para>
<para>
There are some limited situations where it is
preferred that we should skip even trying to
use inotify. In these rare cases, this option
should be set to 'false'
</para>
<para>
Default: true on platforms where inotify is
supported. False on other platforms.
</para>
<para>
Note: this option will have no effect on
platforms where inotify is unavailable. On
these platforms, polling will always be used.
</para>
</listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term>krb5_rcache_dir (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Directory on the filesystem where SSSD should
store Kerberos replay cache files.
</para>
<para>
This option accepts a special value
__LIBKRB5_DEFAULTS__ that will instruct SSSD
to let libkrb5 decide the appropriate
location for the replay cache.
</para>
<para>
Default: Distribution-specific and specified
at build-time. (__LIBKRB5_DEFAULTS__ if not
configured)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>default_domain_suffix (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
This string will be used as a default domain
name for all names without a domain name
component. The main use case is environments
where the primary domain is intended for managing host
policies and all users are located in a trusted domain.
The option allows those users
to log in just with their user name without
giving a domain name as well.
</para>
<para>
Please note that if this option is set all
users from the primary domain have to use their
fully qualified name, e.g. user@domain.name,
to log in.

Default: not set

<term>fd_limit</term>
<listitem>
<para>
This option specifies the maximum number of file
descriptors that may be opened at one time by this
SSSD process. On systems where SSSD is granted the
CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability, this will be an
absolute setting. On systems without this
capability, the resulting value will be the lower
value of this or the limits.conf "hard" limit.

<para>
Default: 8192 (or limits.conf "hard" limit)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>client_idle_timeout</term>
<listitem>
<para>
This option specifies the number of seconds that
a client of an SSSD process can hold onto a file
descriptor without communicating on it. This value
is limited in order to avoid resource exhaustion
on the system.
</para>
<para>
Default: 60
</para>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>force_timeout (integer)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
If a service is not responding to ping checks (see
the <quote>timeout</quote> option), it is first sent
the SIGTERM signal that instructs it to quit gracefully.
If the service does not terminate after <quote>force_timeout</quote>
seconds, the monitor will forcibly shut it down by
sending a SIGKILL signal.

</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>entry_cache_nowait_percentage (integer)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The entry cache can be set to automatically update
entries in the background if they are requested
beyond a percentage of the entry_cache_timeout
value for the domain.
</para>
<para>
For example, if the domain's entry_cache_timeout
is set to 30s and entry_cache_nowait_percentage is
set to 50 (percent), entries that come in after 15
seconds past the last cache update will be
returned immediately, but the SSSD will go and
update the cache on its own, so that future
requests will not need to block waiting for a
cache update.
</para>
<para>
Valid values for this option are 0-99 and
represent a percentage of the entry_cache_timeout
for each domain. For performance reasons, this
percentage will never reduce the nowait timeout to
less than 10 seconds.
(0 disables this feature)

<para>
Default: 50

<varlistentry>
<term>entry_negative_timeout (integer)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specifies for how many seconds nss_sss should cache
negative cache hits (that is, queries for
invalid database entries, like nonexistent ones)
before asking the back end again.
</para>
<para>
Default: 15

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>filter_users, filter_groups (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Exclude certain users from being fetched from the sss
NSS database. This is particularly useful for system

include fully-qualified names to filter only users from
the particular domain.

The PAC responder works together with the authorization data
plugin for MIT Kerberos sssd_pac_plugin.so and a sub-domain
provider. The plugin sends the PAC data during a GSSAPI
authentication to the PAC responder. The sub-domain provider
collects domain SID and ID ranges of the domain the client is
joined to and of remote trusted domains from the local domain
controller. If the PAC is decoded and evaluated some of the
following operations are done:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>If the remote user does not exist in the

be empty by default, i.e. the system defaults are used, but
can be overwritten with the default_shell parameter.</para>

Please note that although the UID 0 is used as the

<para>
TRUE = Users and groups are enumerated
</para>
<para>
FALSE = No enumerations for this domain
</para>
<para>
Default: FALSE
</para>
<para>
Note: Enabling enumeration has a moderate
performance impact on SSSD while enumeration
is running. It may take up to several minutes
after SSSD startup to fully complete enumerations.
During this time, individual requests for
information will go directly to LDAP, though it
may be slow, due to the heavy enumeration
processing. Saving a large number of entries
to cache after the enumeration completes might
also be CPU intensive as the memberships have
to be recomputed.
</para>
<para>
While the first enumeration is running, requests
for the complete user or group lists may return
no results until it completes.
</para>
<para>
Further, enabling enumeration may increase the time
necessary to detect network disconnection, as
longer timeouts are required to ensure that
enumeration lookups are completed successfully.
For more information, refer to the man pages for
the specific id_provider in use.
</para>

For the reasons cited above, enabling enumeration
is not recommended, especially in large

<term>re_expression (string)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Regular expression for this domain that describes
how to parse the string containing user name and
domain into these components.
The "domain" can match either the SSSD
configuration domain name, or, in the case
of IPA trust subdomains and Active Directory
domains, the flat (NetBIOS) name of the domain.
</para>
<para>
Default for the AD and IPA provider:
<quote>(((?P<domain>[^\\]+)\\(?P<name>.+$))|((?P<name>[^@]+)@(?P<domain>.+$))|(^(?P<name>[^@\\]+)$))</quote>
which allows three different styles for user names:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>username</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>username@domain.name</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>domain\username</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
While the first two correspond to the general
default the third one is introduced to allow easy
integration of users from Windows domains.
</para>
<para>
Default: <quote>(?P<name>[^@]+)@?(?P<domain>[^@]*$)</quote>
which translates to "the name is everything up to
the <quote>@</quote> sign, the domain everything
after that"
</para>
<para>
PLEASE NOTE: the support for non-unique named
subpatterns is not available on all platforms
(e.g. RHEL5 and SLES10). Only platforms with
libpcre version 7 or higher can support non-unique
named subpatterns.
</para>
<para>
PLEASE NOTE ALSO: older version of libpcre only
support the Python syntax (?P<name>) to label
subpatterns.
