I am stuck with Ubuntu 10.04 (no chance of upgrading our servers). This means I am currently running SSSD 1.0.5.
This is a very, very old version of SSSD. It hasn't been supported in ages.
I want to limit which users can login. In later versions I believe I would use 'ldap_access_filter'
Does that version have the "simple" access provider (man sssd-simple). If so, you could use that one.
This would allow only users in the specified groups to login.
Given my limitation on the version of SSSD can anyone help me achieve the same or is it not possible?
I am a bit scared of rebuilding newer versions of SSSD.
I would really urge you to upgrade. I'm CC-ing Timo Aaltonen, the Ubuntu SSSD maintainer.
Timo, do you have maybe any PPA for 10.04 with more recent SSSD versions?
SSSD was approved for a standing Micro Release Exception on January 8th[1], meaning that it's now on the list of packages that Ubuntu can opt to upgrade within a stable release. My understanding is that there are plans to backport SSSD 1.8 at least to the currently-supported Ubuntu releases, though Timo will have to confirm that for me (I'm only going from hearsay).
