[SSSD-users] Can SSSD be set up to disallow login if provider not available?
Hi SSSD experts
I have tried examining various documentation and man pages but I am unable to determine
the answer. Specifically, for security reasons, we require user on our Linux servers to
login via AD credentials only (unless they are a specific local user). In particular, if
the provider is offline/not available (in this case an AD server/servers) then login
should fail.
I thought it would be possible by setting various "cache" parameters but the
documentation suggests that zero (0) is not a useful value.
So, can this be done? And if so, how? And if I missed some simple thing in the
documentation a reply pointing me to said documentation would be acceptable :-).
Thanks.
Phil
