PAM_WINBIND.CONF(5)                    5                   PAM_WINBIND.CONF(5)

NAME
       pam_winbind.conf - Configuration file of PAM module for Winbind

DESCRIPTION
       This configuration file is part of the samba(7) suite.

       pam_winbind.conf is the configuration file for the pam_winbind PAM
       module. See pam_winbind(8) for further details.

SYNOPSIS
       The pam_winbind.conf configuration file is a classic ini-style
       configuration file. There is only one section (global) where various
       options are defined.

OPTIONS
       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.

       debug = yes|no
           Gives debugging output to syslog. Defaults to "no".

       debug_state = yes|no
           Gives detailed PAM state debugging output to syslog. Defaults to
           "no".

       require_membership_of = [SID or NAME]
           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:
           MYDOMAIN\\mygroup or MYDOMAIN\\myuser. 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.

           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).

       try_first_pass = yes|no
           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".

       krb5_auth = yes|no
           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 winbind refresh tickets,
           winbind will keep your Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) uptodate by
           refreshing it whenever necessary. Defaults to "no".

       krb5_ccache_type = [type]
           When pam_winbind is configured to try kerberos authentication by
           enabling the krb5_auth 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:
           KEYRING (when supported by the system's Kerberos library and
           Kernel), FILE and DIR (when the DIR type is supported by the
           system's 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.

           When using the KEYRING type, the supported mechanism is
           "KEYRING:persistent:UID", which uses the Linux kernel keyring to
           store credentials on a per-UID basis. This is the recommended
           choice on latest Linux distributions, as it is the most secure and
           predictable method.

           It is also possible to define custom filepaths and use the "%u"
           pattern in order to substitue the numeric user id. Examples:

           krb5_ccache_type = DIR:/run/user/%u/krb5cc
               This will create a credential cache file in the specified
               directory.

           krb5_ccache_type = FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_%u
               This will create a credential cache file.

           Leave empty to just do kerberos authentication without having a
           ticket cache after the logon has succeeded. This setting is empty
           by default.

       cached_login = yes|no
           Winbind allows to logon using cached credentials when winbind
           offline logon is enabled. To use this feature from the PAM module
           this option must be set. Defaults to "no".

       silent = yes|no
           Do not emit any messages. Defaults to "no".

       mkhomedir = yes|no
           Create homedirectory for a user on-the-fly, option is valid in PAM
           session block. Defaults to "no".

       warn_pwd_expire = days
           Defines number of days before pam_winbind starts to warn about
           passwords that are going to expire. Defaults to 14 days.
