We tried, but bitmaps are just too hard to use for most users. So we added this sentence to the man page: ---------------------------- SSSD supports two representations for specifying the debug level. The simplest is to specify a decimal value from 0-9, which represents enabling that level and all lower-level debug messages. The more comprehensive option is to specify a hexadecimal bitmask to enable or disable specific levels (such as if you wish to suppress a level). ---------------------------- > But to do that we need to have at least > a set of predefined ones that can address most common cases.

TBH in reality I either just use "-d 3" to see failures, "-d 7" to use most traffic or "-d 10" to see everything including tracing... _______________________________________________ sssd-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-users
