sssd.conf, authconfig and ldap_uri

[Olivier]

Hello everyone,

I launch "authconfig" within a script to setup my redhat6 boxes.

I noticed that authconfig does not set up sssd.conf properly :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=874527

but the bug is declared as "closed" ?

First question :

could anyone confirm that authconfig does *not* configure
sssd.conf with "--enablesss" and  "--enablesssdauth" and
that I therefore need to configure that file myself (by hand
or within my script) ?

Second question:

I noticed that sssd seemed to work properly even without
declaring the "ldap_uri" parameter within sssd.conf. Could
anyone confirm that this parameter is not necessary and
where does sssd collect the list of ldap servers to query
in that case, ldap.conf ?

Thank you for any help,

Best regards,
