passwd sss files systemd
- sss means that user and group information will be pulled from the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD). The sssd allows you to use LDAP, FreeIPA, or even Microsoft Active Directory as a means of user authentication.
- files which are the /etc/passwd, /etc/group, /etc/shadow, and /etc/gshadow files.
- systemd The systemd setting allows the system to authenticate a dynamic user that might be configured in a service unit file, and that wouldn’t have an entry in either the /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow files.
