Hi all,

I'm new to this list and to SSSD. I just set up SSSD so that our admins can
authenticate on Linux using their Active Directory username. For this I
have a centralized 'box' (AUTH01) in the production environment. Everything
works on that single box authenticating to the AD. My question now is if
there's a way to have other Linux VMs (CentOS 6.5) in that environment
authenticate against that AUTH01 instance using only SSSD? Or do I need
something on top of it?

Sorry if this is a question that's already been asked but I've been
searching the internet without any luck yet.

Kind regards,

I don't think this is currently possible, SSSD only supports
authentication against an LDAP server, a KDC or variants of the latter
(AD, IPA, ...)

The IPA server mode currently does something similar, the IPA server
which is acting a bit like proxy listens to requests from clients and
does a PAM conversation against locally running SSSD which talks to AD
servers. But still, there is a component (ns-slapd in that case) that
talks to the local SSSD and smart clients that talk to ns-slapd.
