sssd-ad(5)



NAME

   sssd-ad - SSSD Active Directory provider

DESCRIPTION

   This manual page describes the configuration of the AD provider for
   sssd(8). For a detailed syntax reference, refer to the "FILE FORMAT"
   section of the sssd.conf(5) manual page.

   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.

   The AD provider supports connecting to Active Directory 2008 R2 or
   later. Earlier versions may work, but are unsupported.

   The AD provider can be used to get user information and authenticate
   users from trusted domains. Currently only trusted domains in the same
   forest are recognized. In addition servers from trusted domains are
   always auto-discovered.

   The AD provider accepts the same options used by the sssd-ldap(5)
   identity provider and the sssd-krb5(5) authentication provider with
   some exceptions described below.

   However, it is neither necessary nor recommended to set these options.
   The AD provider can also be used as an access, chpass, sudo and autofs
   provider. No configuration of the access provider is required on the
   client side.

   By default, the AD provider will map UID and GID values from the
   objectSID parameter in Active Directory. For details on this, see the
   "ID MAPPING" section below. If you want to disable ID mapping and
   instead rely on POSIX attributes defined in Active Directory, you
   should set

       ldap_id_mapping = False

   In order to retrieve users and groups using POSIX attributes from
   trusted domains, the AD administrator must make sure that the POSIX
   attributes are replicated to the Global Catalog.

   Users, groups and other entities served by SSSD are always treated as
   case-insensitive in the AD provider for compatibility with Active
   Directory's LDAP implementation.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

   Refer to the section "DOMAIN SECTIONS" of the sssd.conf(5) manual page
   for details on the configuration of an SSSD domain.

   ad_domain (string)
       Specifies the name of the Active Directory domain. This is
       optional. If not provided, the configuration domain name is used.

       For proper operation, this option should be specified as the
       lower-case version of the long version of the Active Directory
       domain.

       The short domain name (also known as the NetBIOS or the flat name)
       is autodetected by the SSSD.

   ad_server, ad_backup_server (string)
       The comma-separated list of hostnames of the AD servers to which
       SSSD should connect in order of preference. For more information on
       failover and server redundancy, see the "FAILOVER" section.

       This is optional if autodiscovery is enabled. For more information
       on service discovery, refer to the "SERVICE DISCOVERY" section.

       Note: Trusted domains will always auto-discover servers even if the
       primary server is explicitly defined in the ad_server option.

   ad_hostname (string)
       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.

       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.

   ad_enable_dns_sites (boolean)
       Enables DNS sites - location based service discovery.

       If true and service discovery (see Service Discovery paragraph at
       the bottom of the man page) is enabled, the SSSD will first attempt
       to discover the Active Directory server to connect to using the
       Active Directory Site Discovery and fall back to the DNS SRV
       records if no AD site is found. The DNS SRV configuration,
       including the discovery domain, is used during site discovery as
       well.

       Default: true

   ad_access_filter (string)
       This option specifies LDAP access control filter that the user must
       match in order to be allowed access. Please note that the
       "access_provider" option must be explicitly set to "ad" in order
       for this option to have an effect.

       The option also supports specifying different filters per domain or
       forest. This extended filter would consist of:
       "KEYWORD:NAME:FILTER". The keyword can be either "DOM", "FOREST" or
       missing.

       If the keyword equals to "DOM" or is missing, then "NAME" specifies
       the domain or subdomain the filter applies to. If the keyword
       equals to "FOREST", then the filter equals to all domains from the
       forest specified by "NAME".

       Multiple filters can be separated with the "?"  character,
       similarly to how search bases work.

       The most specific match is always used. For example, if the option
       specified filter for a domain the user is a member of and a global
       filter, the per-domain filter would be applied. If there are more
       matches with the same specification, the first one is used.

       Examples:

           # apply filter on domain called dom1 only:
           dom1:(memberOf=cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=dom1,dc=com)

           # apply filter on domain called dom2 only:
           DOM:dom2:(memberOf=cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=dom2,dc=com)

           # apply filter on forest called EXAMPLE.COM only:
           FOREST:EXAMPLE.COM:(memberOf=cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com)

       Default: Not set

   ad_site (string)
       Specify AD site to which client should try to connect. If this
       option is not provided, the AD site will be auto-discovered.

       Default: Not set

   ad_enable_gc (boolean)
       By default, the SSSD connects to the Global Catalog first to
       retrieve users from trusted domains and uses the LDAP port to
       retrieve group memberships or as a fallback. Disabling this option
       makes the SSSD only connect to the LDAP port of the current AD
       server.

       Please note that disabling Global Catalog support does not disable
       retrieving users from trusted domains. The SSSD would connect to
       the LDAP port of trusted domains instead. However, Global Catalog
       must be used in order to resolve cross-domain group memberships.

       Default: true

   ad_gpo_access_control (string)
       This option specifies the operation mode for GPO-based access
       control functionality: whether it operates in disabled mode,
       enforcing mode, or permissive mode. Please note that the
       "access_provider" option must be explicitly set to "ad" in order
       for this option to have an effect.

       GPO-based access control functionality uses GPO policy settings to
       determine whether or not a particular user is allowed to logon to a
       particular host.

       NOTE: If the operation mode is set to enforcing, it is possible
       that users that were previously allowed logon access will now be
       denied logon access (as dictated by the GPO policy settings). In
       order to facilitate a smooth transition for administrators, a
       permissive mode is available that will not enforce the access
       control rules, but will evaluate them and will output a syslog
       message if access would have been denied. By examining the logs,
       administrators can then make the necessary changes before setting
       the mode to enforcing.

       There are three supported values for this option:

       *   disabled: GPO-based access control rules are neither evaluated
           nor enforced.

       *   enforcing: GPO-based access control rules are evaluated and
           enforced.

       *   permissive: GPO-based access control rules are evaluated, but
           not enforced. Instead, a syslog message will be emitted
           indicating that the user would have been denied access if this
           option's value were set to enforcing.

       Default: enforcing

   ad_gpo_cache_timeout (integer)
       The amount of time between lookups of GPO policy files against the
       AD server. This will reduce the latency and load on the AD server
       if there are many access-control requests made in a short period.

       Default: 5 (seconds)

   ad_gpo_map_interactive (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access control is evaluated based on the InteractiveLogonRight and
       DenyInteractiveLogonRight policy settings.

       Note: Using the Group Policy Management Editor this value is called
       "Allow log on locally" and "Deny log on locally".

       It is possible to add another PAM service name to the default set
       by using "+service_name" or to explicitly remove a PAM service name
       from the default set by using "-service_name". For example, in
       order to replace a default PAM service name for this logon right
       (e.g.  "login") with a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_interactive = +my_pam_service, -login

       Default: the default set of PAM service names includes:

       *   login

       *   su

       *   su-l

       *   gdm-fingerprint

       *   gdm-password

       *   gdm-smartcard

       *   kdm

       *   lightdm

       *   lxdm

       *   sddm

       *   unity

       *   xdm

   ad_gpo_map_remote_interactive (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access control is evaluated based on the
       RemoteInteractiveLogonRight and DenyRemoteInteractiveLogonRight
       policy settings.

       Note: Using the Group Policy Management Editor this value is called
       "Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services" and "Deny log on
       through Remote Desktop Services".

       It is possible to add another PAM service name to the default set
       by using "+service_name" or to explicitly remove a PAM service name
       from the default set by using "-service_name". For example, in
       order to replace a default PAM service name for this logon right
       (e.g.  "sshd") with a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_remote_interactive = +my_pam_service, -sshd

       Default: the default set of PAM service names includes:

       *   sshd

       *   cockpit

   ad_gpo_map_network (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access control is evaluated based on the NetworkLogonRight and
       DenyNetworkLogonRight policy settings.

       Note: Using the Group Policy Management Editor this value is called
       "Access this computer from the network" and "Deny access to this
       computer from the network".

       It is possible to add another PAM service name to the default set
       by using "+service_name" or to explicitly remove a PAM service name
       from the default set by using "-service_name". For example, in
       order to replace a default PAM service name for this logon right
       (e.g.  "ftp") with a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_network = +my_pam_service, -ftp

       Default: the default set of PAM service names includes:

       *   ftp

       *   samba

   ad_gpo_map_batch (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access control is evaluated based on the BatchLogonRight and
       DenyBatchLogonRight policy settings.

       Note: Using the Group Policy Management Editor this value is called
       "Allow log on as a batch job" and "Deny log on as a batch job".

       It is possible to add another PAM service name to the default set
       by using "+service_name" or to explicitly remove a PAM service name
       from the default set by using "-service_name". For example, in
       order to replace a default PAM service name for this logon right
       (e.g.  "crond") with a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_batch = +my_pam_service, -crond

       Default: the default set of PAM service names includes:

       *   crond

   ad_gpo_map_service (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access control is evaluated based on the ServiceLogonRight and
       DenyServiceLogonRight policy settings.

       Note: Using the Group Policy Management Editor this value is called
       "Allow log on as a service" and "Deny log on as a service".

       It is possible to add a PAM service name to the default set by
       using "+service_name". Since the default set is empty, it is not
       possible to remove a PAM service name from the default set. For
       example, in order to add a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_service = +my_pam_service

       Default: not set

   ad_gpo_map_permit (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access is always granted, regardless of any GPO Logon Rights.

       It is possible to add another PAM service name to the default set
       by using "+service_name" or to explicitly remove a PAM service name
       from the default set by using "-service_name". For example, in
       order to replace a default PAM service name for unconditionally
       permitted access (e.g.  "sudo") with a custom pam service name
       (e.g.  "my_pam_service"), you would use the following
       configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_permit = +my_pam_service, -sudo

       Default: the default set of PAM service names includes:

       *   sudo

       *   sudo-i

       *   systemd-user

   ad_gpo_map_deny (string)
       A comma-separated list of PAM service names for which GPO-based
       access is always denied, regardless of any GPO Logon Rights.

       It is possible to add a PAM service name to the default set by
       using "+service_name". Since the default set is empty, it is not
       possible to remove a PAM service name from the default set. For
       example, in order to add a custom pam service name (e.g.
       "my_pam_service"), you would use the following configuration:

           ad_gpo_map_deny = +my_pam_service

       Default: not set

   ad_gpo_default_right (string)
       This option defines how access control is evaluated for PAM service
       names that are not explicitly listed in one of the ad_gpo_map_*
       options. This option can be set in two different manners. First,
       this option can be set to use a default logon right. For example,
       if this option is set to 'interactive', it means that unmapped PAM
       service names will be processed based on the InteractiveLogonRight
       and DenyInteractiveLogonRight policy settings. Alternatively, this
       option can be set to either always permit or always deny access for
       unmapped PAM service names.

       Supported values for this option include:

       *   interactive

       *   remote_interactive

       *   network

       *   batch

       *   service

       *   permit

       *   deny

       Default: deny

   ad_maximum_machine_account_password_age (integer)
       SSSD will check once a day if the machine account password is older
       than the given age in days and try to renew it. A value of 0 will
       disable the renewal attempt.

       Default: 30 days

   ad_machine_account_password_renewal_opts (string)
       This option should only be used to test the machine account renewal
       task. The option expect 2 integers seperated by a colon (':'). The
       first integer defines the interval in seconds how often the task is
       run. The second specifies the inital timeout in seconds before the
       task is run for the first time after startup.

       Default: 86400:750 (24h and 15m)

   dyndns_update (boolean)
       Optional. This option tells SSSD to automatically update the Active
       Directory DNS server with the IP address of this client. The update
       is secured using GSS-TSIG. As a consequence, the Active Directory
       administrator only needs to allow secure updates for the DNS zone.
       The IP address of the AD LDAP connection is used for the updates,
       if it is not otherwise specified by using the "dyndns_iface"
       option.

       NOTE: On older systems (such as RHEL 5), for this behavior to work
       reliably, the default Kerberos realm must be set properly in
       /etc/krb5.conf

       Default: true

   dyndns_ttl (integer)
       The TTL to apply to the client DNS record when updating it. If
       dyndns_update is false this has no effect. This will override the
       TTL serverside if set by an administrator.

       Default: 3600 (seconds)

   dyndns_iface (string)
       Optional. Applicable only when dyndns_update is true. Choose the
       interface or a list of interfaces whose IP addresses should be used
       for dynamic DNS updates. Special value "*" implies that IPs from
       all interfaces should be used.

       Default: Use the IP addresses of the interface which is used for AD
       LDAP connection

       Example: dyndns_iface = em1, vnet1, vnet2

   dyndns_refresh_interval (integer)
       How often should the back end perform periodic DNS update in
       addition to the automatic update performed when the back end goes
       online. This option is optional and applicable only when
       dyndns_update is true.

       Default: 86400 (24 hours)

   dyndns_update_ptr (bool)
       Whether the PTR record should also be explicitly updated when
       updating the client's DNS records. Applicable only when
       dyndns_update is true.

       Default: True

   dyndns_force_tcp (bool)
       Whether the nsupdate utility should default to using TCP for
       communicating with the DNS server.

       Default: False (let nsupdate choose the protocol)

   dyndns_server (string)
       The DNS server to use when performing a DNS update. In most setups,
       it's recommended to leave this option unset.

       Setting this option makes sense for environments where the DNS
       server is different from the identity server.

       Please note that this option will be only used in fallback attempt
       when previous attempt using autodetected settings failed.

       Default: None (let nsupdate choose the server)

   override_homedir (string)
       Override the user's home directory. You can either provide an
       absolute value or a template. In the template, the following
       sequences are substituted:

       %u
           login name

       %U
           UID number

       %d
           domain name

       %f
           fully qualified user name (user@domain)

       %P
           UPN - User Principal Name (name@REALM)

       %o
           The original home directory retrieved from the identity
           provider.

       %H
           The value of configure option homedir_substring.

       %%
           a literal '%'

       This option can also be set per-domain.

       example:

           override_homedir = /home/%u

       Default: Not set (SSSD will use the value retrieved from LDAP)

   homedir_substring (string)
       The value of this option will be used in the expansion of the
       override_homedir option if the template contains the format string
       %H. An LDAP directory entry can directly contain this template so
       that this option can be used to expand the home directory path for
       each client machine (or operating system). It can be set per-domain
       or globally in the [nss] section. A value specified in a domain
       section will override one set in the [nss] section.

       Default: /home

   krb5_use_enterprise_principal (boolean)
       Specifies if the user principal should be treated as enterprise
       principal. See section 5 of RFC 6806 for more details about
       enterprise principals.

       Default: true

       Note that this default differs from the traditional Kerberos
       provider back end.

   krb5_confd_path (string)
       Absolute path of a directory where SSSD should place Kerberos
       configuration snippets.

       To disable the creation of the configuration snippets set the
       parameter to 'none'.

       Default: not set (krb5.include.d subdirectory of SSSD's pubconf
       directory)

FAILOVER

   The failover feature allows back ends to automatically switch to a
   different server if the current server fails.

   Failover Syntax
   The list of servers is given as a comma-separated list; any number of
   spaces is allowed around the comma. The servers are listed in order of
   preference. The list can contain any number of servers.

   For each failover-enabled config option, two variants exist: primary
   and backup. The idea is that servers in the primary list are preferred
   and backup servers are only searched if no primary servers can be
   reached. If a backup server is selected, a timeout of 31 seconds is
   set. After this timeout SSSD will periodically try to reconnect to one
   of the primary servers. If it succeeds, it will replace the current
   active (backup) server.

   The Failover Mechanism
   The failover mechanism distinguishes between a machine and a service.
   The back end first tries to resolve the hostname of a given machine; if
   this resolution attempt fails, the machine is considered offline. No
   further attempts are made to connect to this machine for any other
   service. If the resolution attempt succeeds, the back end tries to
   connect to a service on this machine. If the service connection attempt
   fails, then only this particular service is considered offline and the
   back end automatically switches over to the next service. The machine
   is still considered online and might still be tried for another
   service.

   Further connection attempts are made to machines or services marked as
   offline after a specified period of time; this is currently hard coded
   to 30 seconds.

   If there are no more machines to try, the back end as a whole switches
   to offline mode, and then attempts to reconnect every 30 seconds.

SERVICE DISCOVERY

   The service discovery feature allows back ends to automatically find
   the appropriate servers to connect to using a special DNS query. This
   feature is not supported for backup servers.

   Configuration
   If no servers are specified, the back end automatically uses service
   discovery to try to find a server. Optionally, the user may choose to
   use both fixed server addresses and service discovery by inserting a
   special keyword, "_srv_", in the list of servers. The order of
   preference is maintained. This feature is useful if, for example, the
   user prefers to use service discovery whenever possible, and fall back
   to a specific server when no servers can be discovered using DNS.

   The domain name
   Please refer to the "dns_discovery_domain" parameter in the
   sssd.conf(5) manual page for more details.

   The protocol
   The queries usually specify _tcp as the protocol. Exceptions are
   documented in respective option description.

   See Also
   For more information on the service discovery mechanism, refer to RFC
   2782.

ID MAPPING

   The ID-mapping feature allows SSSD to act as a client of Active
   Directory without requiring administrators to extend user attributes to
   support POSIX attributes for user and group identifiers.

   NOTE: When ID-mapping is enabled, the uidNumber and gidNumber
   attributes are ignored. This is to avoid the possibility of conflicts
   between automatically-assigned and manually-assigned values. If you
   need to use manually-assigned values, ALL values must be
   manually-assigned.

   Please note that changing the ID mapping related configuration options
   will cause user and group IDs to change. At the moment, SSSD does not
   support changing IDs, so the SSSD database must be removed. Because
   cached passwords are also stored in the database, removing the database
   should only be performed while the authentication servers are
   reachable, otherwise users might get locked out. In order to cache the
   password, an authentication must be performed. It is not sufficient to
   use sss_cache(8) to remove the database, rather the process consists
   of:

   *   Making sure the remote servers are reachable

   *   Stopping the SSSD service

   *   Removing the database

   *   Starting the SSSD service

   Moreover, as the change of IDs might necessitate the adjustment of
   other system properties such as file and directory ownership, it's
   advisable to plan ahead and test the ID mapping configuration
   thoroughly.

   Mapping Algorithm
   Active Directory provides an objectSID for every user and group object
   in the directory. This objectSID can be broken up into components that
   represent the Active Directory domain identity and the relative
   identifier (RID) of the user or group object.

   The SSSD ID-mapping algorithm takes a range of available UIDs and
   divides it into equally-sized component sections - called "slices"-.
   Each slice represents the space available to an Active Directory
   domain.

   When a user or group entry for a particular domain is encountered for
   the first time, the SSSD allocates one of the available slices for that
   domain. In order to make this slice-assignment repeatable on different
   client machines, we select the slice based on the following algorithm:

   The SID string is passed through the murmurhash3 algorithm to convert
   it to a 32-bit hashed value. We then take the modulus of this value
   with the total number of available slices to pick the slice.

   NOTE: It is possible to encounter collisions in the hash and subsequent
   modulus. In these situations, we will select the next available slice,
   but it may not be possible to reproduce the same exact set of slices on
   other machines (since the order that they are encountered will
   determine their slice). In this situation, it is recommended to either
   switch to using explicit POSIX attributes in Active Directory
   (disabling ID-mapping) or configure a default domain to guarantee that
   at least one is always consistent. See "Configuration" for details.

   Configuration
   Minimum configuration (in the "[domain/DOMAINNAME]" section):

       ldap_id_mapping = True
       ldap_schema = ad

   The default configuration results in configuring 10,000 slices, each
   capable of holding up to 200,000 IDs, starting from 10,001 and going up
   to 2,000,100,000. This should be sufficient for most deployments.

   Advanced Configuration
       ldap_idmap_range_min (integer)
           Specifies the lower bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for
           mapping Active Directory user and group SIDs.

           NOTE: This option is different from "min_id" in that "min_id"
           acts to filter the output of requests to this domain, whereas
           this option controls the range of ID assignment. This is a
           subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
           have "min_id" be less-than or equal to "ldap_idmap_range_min"

           Default: 200000

       ldap_idmap_range_max (integer)
           Specifies the upper bound of the range of POSIX IDs to use for
           mapping Active Directory user and group SIDs.

           NOTE: This option is different from "max_id" in that "max_id"
           acts to filter the output of requests to this domain, whereas
           this option controls the range of ID assignment. This is a
           subtle distinction, but the good general advice would be to
           have "max_id" be greater-than or equal to
           "ldap_idmap_range_max"

           Default: 2000200000

       ldap_idmap_range_size (integer)
           Specifies the number of IDs available for each slice. If the
           range size does not divide evenly into the min and max values,
           it will create as many complete slices as it can.

           NOTE: The value of this option must be at least as large as the
           highest user RID planned for use on the Active Directory
           server. User lookups and login will fail for any user whose RID
           is greater than this value.

           For example, if your most recently-added Active Directory user
           has objectSid=S-1-5-21-2153326666-2176343378-3404031434-1107,
           "ldap_idmap_range_size" must be at least 1108 as range size is
           equal to maximal SID minus minimal SID plus one (e.g. 1108 =
           1107 - 0 + 1).

           It is important to plan ahead for future expansion, as changing
           this value will result in changing all of the ID mappings on
           the system, leading to users with different local IDs than they
           previously had.

           Default: 200000

       ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid (string)
           Specify the domain SID of the default domain. This will
           guarantee that this domain will always be assigned to slice
           zero in the ID map, bypassing the murmurhash algorithm
           described above.

           Default: not set

       ldap_idmap_default_domain (string)
           Specify the name of the default domain.

           Default: not set

       ldap_idmap_autorid_compat (boolean)
           Changes the behavior of the ID-mapping algorithm to behave more
           similarly to winbind's "idmap_autorid" algorithm.

           When this option is configured, domains will be allocated
           starting with slice zero and increasing monatomically with each
           additional domain.

           NOTE: This algorithm is non-deterministic (it depends on the
           order that users and groups are requested). If this mode is
           required for compatibility with machines running winbind, it is
           recommended to also use the "ldap_idmap_default_domain_sid"
           option to guarantee that at least one domain is consistently
           allocated to slice zero.

           Default: False

       ldap_idmap_helper_table_size (integer)
           Maximal number of secondary slices that is tried when
           performing mapping from UNIX id to SID.

           Note: Additional secondary slices might be generated when SID
           is being mapped to UNIX id and RID part of SID is out of range
           for secondary slices generated so far. If value of
           ldap_idmap_helper_table_size is equal to 0 then no additional
           secondary slices are generated.

           Default: 10

   Well-Known SIDs
   SSSD supports to look up the names of Well-Known SIDs, i.e. SIDs with a
   special hardcoded meaning. Since the generic users and groups related
   to those Well-Known SIDs have no equivalent in a Linux/UNIX environment
   no POSIX IDs are available for those objects.

   The SID name space is organized in authorities which can be seen as
   different domains. The authorities for the Well-Known SIDs are

   *   Null Authority

   *   World Authority

   *   Local Authority

   *   Creator Authority

   *   NT Authority

   *   Built-in

   The capitalized version of these names are used as domain names when
   returning the fully qualified name of a Well-Known SID.

   Since some utilities allow to modify SID based access control
   information with the help of a name instead of using the SID directly
   SSSD supports to look up the SID by the name as well. To avoid
   collisions only the fully qualified names can be used to look up
   Well-Known SIDs. As a result the domain names "NULL AUTHORITY", "WORLD
   AUTHORITY", " LOCAL AUTHORITY", "CREATOR AUTHORITY", "NT AUTHORITY" and
   "BUILTIN" should not be used as domain names in sssd.conf.

EXAMPLE

   The following example assumes that SSSD is correctly configured and
   example.com is one of the domains in the [sssd] section. This example
   shows only the AD provider-specific options.

       [domain/EXAMPLE]
       id_provider = ad
       auth_provider = ad
       access_provider = ad
       chpass_provider = ad

       ad_server = dc1.example.com
       ad_hostname = client.example.com
       ad_domain = example.com

NOTES

   The AD access control provider checks if the account is expired. It has
   the same effect as the following configuration of the LDAP provider:

       access_provider = ldap
       ldap_access_order = expire
       ldap_account_expire_policy = ad

   However, unless the "ad" access control provider is explicitly
   configured, the default access provider is "permit". Please note that
   if you configure an access provider other than "ad", you need to set
   all the connection parameters (such as LDAP URIs and encryption
   details) manually.

   When the autofs provider is set to "ad", the RFC2307 schema attribute
   mapping (nisMap, nisObject, ...) is used, because these attributes are
   included the default Active Directory schema.
