Hi,

I wasn't aware of authconfig; that sounds like a fruitful path. Thanks also for the mention of freeipa-users. We're primarily looking at Debian/Ubuntu environments, but once we've got it working on one Linux platform it should be easy to move across to others. We may need a Solaris solution too.

Thanks again,
Jonathan.

If you are trying to read the project Trac docs, you might have better luck with the RHEL [1] or Fedora [2] docs. I don't think sssd has its own users mailing list, but sssd came out of FreeIPA and shares many of the same devs, so you should be able to get help on freeipa-users.

You might want to try authconfig or authconfig-gtk (on RH) to create a base configuration, it's easier than figuring out the whole config. I haven't had to manually edit sssd.conf because kickstart and authconfig create good configs (at least for LDAP).

A couple sssd + AD links:
