NAME

   sssd-simple - the configuration file for SSSD's 'simple' access-control
   provider

DESCRIPTION

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

   The simple access provider grants or denies access based on an access
   or deny list of user or group names. The following rules apply:

   *   If all lists are empty, access is granted

   *   If any list is provided, the order of evaluation is allow,deny.
       This means that any matching deny rule will supersede any matched
       allow rule.

   *   If either or both "allow" lists are provided, all users are denied
       unless they appear in the list.

   *   If only "deny" lists are provided, all users are granted access
       unless they appear in the list.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

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

   simple_allow_users (string)
       Comma separated list of users who are allowed to log in.

   simple_deny_users (string)
       Comma separated list of users who are explicitly denied access.

   simple_allow_groups (string)
       Comma separated list of groups that are allowed to log in. This
       applies only to groups within this SSSD domain. Local groups are
       not evaluated.

   simple_deny_groups (string)
       Comma separated list of groups that are explicitly denied access.
       This applies only to groups within this SSSD domain. Local groups
       are not evaluated.

   Specifying no values for any of the lists is equivalent to skipping it
   entirely. Beware of this while generating parameters for the simple
   provider using automated scripts.

   Please note that it is an configuration error if both,
   simple_allow_users and simple_deny_users, are defined.

EXAMPLE

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

       [domain/example.com]
       access_provider = simple
       simple_allow_users = user1, user2

NOTES

   The complete group membership hierarchy is resolved before the access
   check, thus even nested groups can be included in the access lists.
   Please be aware that the "ldap_group_nesting_level" option may impact
   the results and should be set to a sufficient value. (sssd-ldap(5))
   option.
