See \fBpam_winbind\fR(8) for further details\&. .SH "SYNOPSIS" .PP The pam_winbind\&.conf configuration file is a classic ini\-style configuration file\&. There is only one section (global) where various options are defined\&. .SH "OPTIONS" .PP pam_winbind supports several options which can either be set in the PAM configuration files or in the pam_winbind configuration file situated at /etc/security/pam_winbind\&.conf\&. Options from the PAM configuration file take precedence to those from the pam_winbind\&.conf configuration file\&. .PP debug = yes|no .RS 4 Gives debugging output to syslog\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP debug_state = yes|no .RS 4 Gives detailed PAM state debugging output to syslog\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP require_membership_of = [SID or NAME] .RS 4 If this option is set, pam_winbind will only succeed if the user is a member of the given SID or NAME\&. A SID can be either a group\-SID, an alias\-SID or even an user\-SID\&. It is also possible to give a NAME instead of the SID\&. That name must have the form: \fIMYDOMAIN\emygroup\fR or \fIMYDOMAIN\emyuser\fR (where \*(Aq\e\*(Aq character corresponds to the value of \fIwinbind separator\fR parameter)\&. It is also possible to use a UPN in the form \fIuser@REALM\fR or \fIgroup@REALM\fR\&. pam_winbind will, in that case, lookup the SID internally\&. Note that NAME may not contain any spaces\&. It is thus recommended to only use SIDs\&. You can verify the list of SIDs a user is a member of with wbinfo \-\-user\-sids=SID\&. This setting is empty by default\&. .sp This option only operates during password authentication, and will not restrict access if a password is not required for any reason (such as SSH key\-based login)\&. .RE .PP try_first_pass = yes|no .RS 4 By default, pam_winbind tries to get the authentication token from a previous module\&. If no token is available it asks the user for the old password\&. With this option, pam_winbind aborts with an error if no authentication token from a previous module is available\&. If a primary password is not valid, PAM will prompt for a password\&. Default to "no"\&. .RE .PP krb5_auth = yes|no .RS 4 pam_winbind can authenticate using Kerberos when winbindd is talking to an Active Directory domain controller\&. Kerberos authentication must be enabled with this parameter\&. When Kerberos authentication can not succeed (e\&.g\&. due to clock skew), winbindd will fallback to samlogon authentication over MSRPC\&. When this parameter is used in conjunction with \fIwinbind refresh tickets\fR, winbind will keep your Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) up\-to\-date by refreshing it whenever necessary\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP krb5_ccache_type = [type] .RS 4 When pam_winbind is configured to try kerberos authentication by enabling the \fIkrb5_auth\fR option, it can store the retrieved Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) in a credential cache\&. The type of credential cache can be controlled with this option\&. The supported values are: \fIKCM\fR or \fIKEYRING\fR (when supported by the system\*(Aqs Kerberos library and operating system), \fIFILE\fR and \fIDIR\fR (when the DIR type is supported by the system\*(Aqs Kerberos library)\&. In case of FILE a credential cache in the form of /tmp/krb5cc_UID will be created \- in case of DIR you NEED to specify a directory\&. UID is replaced with the numeric user id\&. The UID directory is being created\&. The path up to the directory should already exist\&. Check the details of the Kerberos implementation\&. .sp When using the KEYRING type, the supported mechanism is \(lqKEYRING:persistent:UID\(rq, which uses the Linux kernel keyring to store credentials on a per\-UID basis\&. The KEYRING has its limitations\&. As it is secure kernel memory, for example bulk storage of credentials is not possible\&. .sp When using the KCM type, the supported mechanism is \(lqKCM:UID\(rq, which uses a Kerberos credential manager to store credentials on a per\-UID basis similar to KEYRING\&. This is the recommended choice on latest Linux distributions, offering a Kerberos Credential Manager\&. If not we suggest to use KEYRING as that is the most secure and predictable method\&. .sp It is also possible to define custom filepaths and use the "%u" pattern in order to substitute the numeric user id\&. Examples: .PP krb5_ccache_type = DIR:/run/user/%u/krb5cc .RS 4 This will create a credential cache file in the specified directory\&. .RE .PP krb5_ccache_type = FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_%u .RS 4 This will create a credential cache file\&. .RE .sp Leave empty to just do kerberos authentication without having a ticket cache after the logon has succeeded\&. This setting is empty by default\&. .RE .PP cached_login = yes|no .RS 4 Winbind allows one to logon using cached credentials when \fIwinbind offline logon\fR is enabled\&. To use this feature from the PAM module this option must be set\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP silent = yes|no .RS 4 Do not emit any messages\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP mkhomedir = yes|no .RS 4 Create homedirectory for a user on\-the\-fly, option is valid in PAM session block\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .PP warn_pwd_expire = days .RS 4 Defines number of days before pam_winbind starts to warn about passwords that are going to expire\&. Defaults to 14 days\&. .RE .PP pwd_change_prompt = yes|no .RS 4 Generate prompt for changing an expired password\&. Defaults to "no"\&. .RE .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fBpam_winbind\fR(8), \fBwbinfo\fR(1), \fBwinbindd\fR(8), \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) .SH "VERSION" .PP This man page is part of version 4\&.21\&.2 of Samba\&. .SH "AUTHOR" .PP The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&. .PP This manpage was written by Jelmer Vernooij and Guenther Deschner\&.
